In order to calculate rate or average speed you divide miles by time
I got 153.8 by dividing 500 by 3.25 (the .25 is because 15 minutes is 1/4 of 60) hope this helped!!

Answer:
160
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem statement tells us ...
(# in museum) = 4 × (# waiting)
(# in museum) = 4 × 40 . . . . . . . . . . . . the number waiting is 40
# in museum = 160
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
So, our two equations are:
2x + 3y = 20 and
-2x + y = 4
We can see that the x's will cancel out because they're the same number, opposite signs. Then we're left with 4y = 24.
Divide 24 by 4, which is 6.
y = 6, then we plug that in to the first equation for y:
2x + 3(6) = 20
2x + 18 = 20
2x = 2
x = 1
So, she made her first mistake when adding the equations, adding 20 and 4, she somehow got 16.
The solution to the system is (1,6).
I hope I helped!
