The car's average rate  is 43.7 mph. The bicycle's average rate is 12.3 mph.

To get this solution, let the bicycle's average rate be (x) and the car's average rate be (x + 31.4) mph. 

Distance= Speed x Time
364 = (x + x + 31.4) 6.5
364 = (2x + 31.4) 6.5
364/6.5 = 2x + 31.4
56 = 2x + 31.4
56 - 31.4 = 2x
24.6 = 2x
24.6/2 = x
12.3 = x

x = 12.3 mph     
x+31.4 = 43.7 mph

Part 2 is 12.5 cm represents 5km
I worked this out by doing a ratio
5cm=2km
?cm=5km
you have to do 2 times 2.5 to get 5km so you do 5 times 2.5 to get 12.5cm
so the answer is that 12.5cm

2(x-1) ≥ 10 or 3-4x &gt; 15<br> Solve the compound inequality, and show work!
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

x\geq 6\text{ or } x

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the compound inequality:

2(x-1)\geq10\text{ or } 3-4x>15

Let's solve each of them individually first:

We have:

2(x-1)\geq10

Divide both sides by 2:

x-1\geq5

Add 1 to both sides:

x\geq6

We have:

3-4x>15

Subtract from both sides:

-4x>12

Divide both sides by -4:  

x

Hence, our solution set is:

x\geq 6\text{ or } x

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Yes,

Step-by-step explanation:

You take 64 miles for 2 gallons and divide it by 2. And it leads up to 32 miles and 1 gallon. Now you divide that by 2 again and get 16 miles and 1/2 gallon. So, to check that you can take 16+16 and you get 32 and take 32+32 and you get 64.
