A mile=5280 feet
1/40 mile*(5280 feet/1 mile)=132 feet

132 feet-------------------1/2  hour
x------------------------------1 hour
x=(132 feet*1 hour) / (1/2 hour)=264 feet/hour.

264 feet/h *(1 mile/5280 feet)=0.05 miles/ h

Solution:  S=264 feet/h  (≈0.05 miles/h)

Answer:

Unit rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 3 feet per second or 6 miles per hour, they are called unit rates.

In the given table shows the number of pictures taken and how much time it took.

For first camera;

Number of pictures (unit rate) per second = \frac{15}{3} =5 pictures.

For second Camera:

Number of picture per second = \frac{48}{8} =6 pictures.

For third Camera:

Number of picture per second = \frac{18}{6} =3 pictures.

The camera that takes picture the fastest is, Second Camera.

(a)

As per the given statement: At Davidson's Bike rentals, it costs $29 to rent a bike for 8 hour.

⇒ unit rate per dollar = \frac{Number of hours }{Total cost} = \frac{8}{29} = 0.2758620 hours

Therefore, 0.227 hours (nearest to hundredths) of bike use does a customer get per dollar.

(b)

Jessica bought 18 pounds of sugar for $10.

unit rate per dollar = \frac{18}{10} =1.8 pounds

therefore, 1.8 pounds of sugar did she get per dollar.

Simplify: √27 A. 3√3 B. 9√3 C. 3√9 D. 5√3
blagie [28]
To simplify square root 27, find two numbers that equal 27. But also, one of the numbers should be a perfect square (such as 4, 9, 36...). 

9*3=27. The square root of 9 is 3, which makes it a perfect square. So, the answer is A.

How do you solve this? x - 2y = 4
valentina_108 [34]
If you want to solve for x, then
add 2y to both sides
x=2y+4
if want to solve for y
minus x both sides and divide by -2
x-2y=4
-2y=-x+4
y=1/2x-2
