Answer:

-1 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert to a mixed number:

-5/3

Divide 5 by 3:

3 | 5

3 goes into 5 at most one time:

| 1

3 | 5

- | 3

| 2

Read off the results. The quotient is the number at the top and the remainder is the number at the bottom:

| 1 | (quotient)

3 | 5 |  

- | 3 |  

| 2 | (remainder)

The quotient of 5/3 is 1 with remainder 2, so:

At 8:00 a.m., there were t inches of snow on the ground. At 5:00 p.m., there were 3t inches of snow on the ground. How many more
Anastaziya [24]

we conclude that at 5:00 p.m. there are 8 more inches of snow than at 8:00 a.m.

<h3>How many more inches of snow were on the ground at 5:00 p.m. than at 8:00 a.m.?</h3>

We know that at 8:00 a.m. there were t inches of snow in the ground.

At 5:00 p.m. there were 3t inches of snow in the ground.

Then the difference between the heights of the snow is:

3t- t = 2t

And we know that at 5:00 p.m. there were 12 inches of snow then we can solve the linear equation for t:

3t = 12in

t = (12in)/3 = 4 in

Replacing that in the difference of heights:

2t = 2*4in = 8in

From this, we conclude that at 5:00 p.m. there are 8 more inches of snow than at 8:00 a.m.

The North Colony Trail at Royal Gorge, Colorado, is 18 miles long. Stacey has hiked eight miles to a resting spot. She hikes the
Kruka [31]

Answer:

4 h

Step-by-step explanation:

The resting spot was at the 8 mi mark.

When Stacey reached the 16th mile, they had covered  

16 mi - 8 mi = 8 mi

They took 2 h for every 1 h, so

\text{Time required} = \text{8 mi} \times \dfrac{\text{1 h}}{\text{2 mi}} = \textbf{4h}

It may be easier to do this calculation on a number line. Each jump of 2 mi represents 1 h, and there are four jumps, so they took four hours.
