Answer:

Time taken to travel at 3 miles = 1.875

Time taken to travel at 5miles = 1.125

Total distance = 11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

D = speed x time

Time = distance/speed

Time at 3 miles per hour and 5 miles per hour

T1 = d/3

T2 = d/5

Total time = 3 hours

T1+t2 = 3 hours

d/3 + d/5 = 3

= d(1/2+1/5) = 3

d(5+3/15) = 3

d(8/15) = 3

We cross multiply

8d = 45

d = 45/8

= 5.625 miles

Total distance = 2d

2x5.625 = 11.25 miles

Since d is now known

T1 = 5.625/3 = 1.875 hours also 1 hour 52.5 minutes

T2 = 5.625/5 = 1.125 hours = 1 hour 7.5 minutes

Total distance 2xd = 11.25

Andre45 [30]

Answer:   The interval notation is : [14, 42]

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

One must have fly at least 11200 miles each year.

Greg takes a 800-mile round-trip flight to visit his parents.

So minimum Greg needs to visit his parents : \frac{11200}{800}

So minimum Greg needs to visit his parents : 14

One must have fly maximum 33600 miles each year.

So, maximum Greg needs to visit his parents : \frac{33600}{800}

So, maximum Greg needs to visit his parents : 42

So minimum 14 and maximum 42 trips Gresg needs for gold status.

The interval notation is : [14, 42]     :   Answer

Hope it will help :)
