Both answers are not the same. You are correct and your friend is wrong. The situation your teacher gave could have only one other interpretation that would be acceptable and that would be 8t+3 because it is the same number just in a different order.

Yesterday I ran 9.6 miles at an average speed of 0.4 miles per 5 minutes. How long did it take me to run the 96 miles?​
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is how we do it in college, I hope I can be of some help.

First, you multiple 9.6 miles with 5 minutes. Then, you divide your answer with 0.4 miles. Next, you cancel the two mile units because of division and then be left with 120 minutes.

9.6 miles x <u>    5 minutes   </u> = <u>  48 miles x minute </u> = 120 minutes

                      0.4 miles          0.4 miles

Which of the following is not a valid conversion factor?
inessss [21]

Answer:

Out of the 3 that were listed, the "conversion" that is invalid is 1 meter = 10 millimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

First: Well, for something like this, you don't really need steps, you just need to know how to do process of elimination and also your conversions:

We know that 1 meter is 100 centimeters

We know 1 kilometer is 1000 meters

We know that 1 meter is 10 millim....... Wait. Do we know that?

No! 1 meter is not 10 millimeters, it's 1000 millimeters. So 1 meter = 10 millimeters is invalid.

If you ever need a converter, use this link: https://www.google.com/search?q=centimeters+to+inches&rlz=1CAFQZI_enCA835&oq=centim&aqs=chrome.2.69i57j0l5.9328j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
