Answer:

  7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation between time, speed, and distance is ...

  time = distance/speed

If distance is "1 round trip", then the time going is ...

  going = 0.5/(10 mi/h) . . . . for 1/2 round trip

and the time coming is ...

  coming = 0.5/(6 mi/h)

Then the average speed for the full round trip is ...

  speed = distance/time

  average speed = 1/(going + coming) = 1/(0.5/10 +0.5/6) mi/h

  = 1/((3+5)/60) mi/h

  = 60/8 mi/h = 7.5 mi/h

Jack's average speed for the round trip was 7.5 mph.

Triangle has 180 degrees:
180=2m-3+m+4+3m+5
Combine like terms
180 = 6m+6
Subtract 6 from 180
174=6m
Divide by 6
m=29

Brainliest if that helped, please :)

Ava has 34 candy bars. If
aliya0001 [1]

\bf Step-by-step~explanation:

If Ava has 34 candy bars, and each box can hold 5 bars, then we need to find out how many boxes that are filled up.

\bf Step~1:

Divide the number of candy bars (34), by the number each box can hold (5)

\bf\frac{34}{5}=6.8

Since we cannot have 6.8 boxes, we have to round down to 6.

\boxed{\bf Our~final~answer:~6~boxes}

\bf Check~our~answer:

To check our answer, we multiply the number of boxes (6), by the number of bars in each box (5), to get 30. We add Ava's extra bars (4), and we get the number we started off with: 34. This proves our answer is correct!

Iris is building a model of the Washington Monument. Her model measures 15 in. tall and is 1.5 in. wide at the base. The actual
irina [24]
Using how tall it is over how wide
=>tall/wide
The model 15in/1.5in
The actual x/55ft

Convert everything into the same units so 55ft to inches
There are 12in in 1ft
55ft * 12in/1ft
The ft cross out leaving in
55*12in= 660 in

So
15in/1.5in = x/660in
Now solve for x my multiplying both side by 660in
660in *15in/1.5in=x
x= 6600in tall

ANSWER QUICKLY PLEASE!!
Yuki888 [10]
It is 30 degrees. Add 90 and 60 to get 180. Then subtract that from 180, since all triangles interior angles add to 180. You’ll get 30.
