<span>78.6 is a decimal number, you must name it with the whole part first and then the decimal part as part of tenths, hundredths or what it corresponds. In this case the whole part is 78 and the decimal part is 6/10 which is 6 tenths. Then, the number in words is sevety eight and six tenths.</span>
Answer:
j
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The answer is b. But you asked for the thought process so...
Step-by-step explanation:
Let speed of the 1st trip x miles / hr. and speed of the 2nd trip 3x / hr.
We know that
Speed = Distance/Time.
Or, Time = Distance/Speed.
So, the time taken to cover a distance of 50 miles on his first trip = 50/x hr.
And the time taken to cover a distance of 300 miles on his later trip = 300/3x hr.
= 100/x hr.
So we can clearly see that his new time compared with the old time was: twice as much.
Have a great day :)
Since we’re trying to find minutes, concert all known information to minutes
1 hr 15 mins = 75 mins
1 hr 30 mins = 90 mins
Next, calculate how many total minutes Gage has skated in the first 8 days
75(5) + 90(3) = 645 mins
Create an equation to find the average of Gage’s minutes of skating. Add up all the minutes and divide by the total amount of days and set equal to 85, the average we are trying to get.
(645 mins + x mins)/9 days = 85
Solve for x
645 + x = 765
x = 120
So, in order to have an average of an 85 minute skate time, Gage would need to skate 120 minutes on the ninth day.
The answer is 2x^2-3x-2.
To solve this, you take f(x)-g(x) which is 2x^2-5-3x+3. This simplifies to 2x^2-3x-2.
