The round trip was 8 miles ( 4 + 4 = 8)
The total time for the trip is 3/10 + 1/2
Rewrite 1/2 as 5/10
Now add 3/10 + 5/10 = 8/10 = 4/5 hour for the 8 mile trip.
Now to find miles per hour, divide total miles by total time:
8 miles / 4/5 hour
When you divide by a fraction flip the fraction over and multiply:
8 x 5/4 = 40/4 = 10
The average rate was 10 miles per hour.

Answer:
Take a look at the 'proof' below
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph of the function g(x) is similar to that of the function f(t). The local minimum, local maximum, absolute minimum, maximum etc... of 'x' is always the closest x-intercept of the graph of f(t).
Let's check if this statement is right. The two local minimum(s) of the function f(t) occurs at x = 2, and x = 6. The two local maximum(s) occur at 1/4 and 4. As you can see the maximum / minimum of the function g(x) is always an x-intercept, x = 3, x = 7.
For part (b) the absolute maximum value of the function f(t), is 8. The closest x-intercept is 9, which is our solution.
It would take the faucet 18 hours to fill the tank because 18/12=1.5. That means it will be 1.5 times slower to fill the tank up with the hose on. 1.5*12=18.
