The correct answer is C) 58/73.

We first add up the amount of time spent driving:
3 + 1 1/2 + 20 minutes

Changing 20 minutes to a fraction of an hour, 20/60 = 1/3:
3 + 1 1/2 + 1/3

Using the LCD (6), 
3 + 1 3/6 + 2/6 = 4 5/6 hrs driving.

Now we find the total time of the trip:
3 + 15 min + 1 1/2 + 1 + 20 min
= 3 + 15/60 + 1 1/2 + 1 + 20/60
= 3 + 1/4 + 1 1/2 + 1 + 1/3

The LCD for this is 12:
3 + 3/12 + 1 6/12 + 1 + 4/12 = 5 13/12 = 6 1/12

We find the ratio of driving to total time, which is (4 5/6)/(6 1/12)
= 4 5/6 ÷ 6 1/12

Converting the mixed numbers to improper fractions,

29/6 ÷ 73/12 = 29/6 × 12/73 = 348/438 = 174/219 = 58/73

What is the solution to the system of equations? Use the substitution method.
aleksandrvk [35]
{ y = 3 x - 4
  9x -3y = 14

Subsititute y = 3x-4 :

[ 9 x - 3 ( 3 x-14 )=14]

Refine:

9 x  - 3 ( 3 x - 4 ) = 14

- 2 = 0

is false , therefore the system of equations has no solution

lozanna [386]

Answer:

3) 5.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two points (x1, f(x1)) and (x2, f(x2)), the average rate of change is computed as follows:

[f(x2) - f(x1)]/[x2 - x1]

From the original photograph to the fourth enlargement, the points are (0, 15) and (4, 36.6). Replacing into the equation we get:

[36.6 - 15]/[4 - 0] = 5.4
