Answer:  The average speed of Shelly is 5.25 miles per hour and she takes 8 hours to bike 42 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that Shelly biked 21 miles in 4 hours.

We are to find the average speed of Shelly in miles per hour. Also, to find the number of hours that Shelly take to bike 42 miles.

We will be using the UNITARY method to solve the problem.

Number of miles biked by Shelly in 4 hours = 21 miles.

So, number of miles biked by Shelly in 1 hour will be

\dfrac{21}{4}=5.25~\textup{miles}.

Now, number of hours Shelly take to bike 5.25 miles = 1 hour.

So, number of hours Shelly take to bike 1 mile will be

\dfrac{1}{5.25}~\textup{hours}.

Therefore, number of hours Shelly take to bike 42 miles is given by

\dfrac{1}{5.25}\times42=8~\textup{hours}.

Thus, the average speed of Shelly is 5.25 miles per hour and she takes 8 hours to bike 42 miles.

21 divide by 4 is 5.25. She travels 5.25 miles per hour.  42 divide by 5.25 is 8. It would take 8 hours for Shelly to bike 42 miles.

The linear equation of the initial (red ) incline would be y = __x +__
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

y=\underline {1.5}x+\underline 0

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph,

The initial red incline is a straight line passing through the origin.

So, a straight line passing through the origin is of the form:

y=mx+0

Where, 'm' is the slope.

Now, the slope of a given as the change in y value to change in x value.

Consider the two end points of the red line (0, 0) and (4, 6).

The slope with two points (x_1,y_1)\ and\ (x_2,y_2) on the line is given as:

m=\frac{(y_2-y_1)}{(x_2-x_1)}

Plug in x_1=0,y_1=0,x_2=4,y_2=6. Therefore, slope is:

m=\frac{6-0}{4-0}\\m=\frac{6}{4}=1.5

Hence, the equation of the initial red incline is:

y=\underline {1.5}x+\underline 0
