Answer:
(b) For each hour that Michelle drove, she traveled an additional 50 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
---- start
--- end
Required
Which is true
(a): Journey = 6 hours
This is false, because:


---- 7 hours
(b): The average rate is 50 miles per hour
To do this, we calculate the slope (m) using:




This means that the rate is 50 miles driven in 1 hour.
<em>(b) is correct</em>
<em></em>
<em>Others are incorrect</em>
Answer:
<u>The number is 125 and the equation is 0.8x = 100</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
80% of x is equal to 100.
Write an equation that shows the relationship of 80%, x, and 100
80% = 0.8
0.8x = 100
x = 100/0.8
x = 125
<u>The number is 125 and the equation is 0.8x = 100</u>
Tigers...I think but im not really sure
Answer:
so the answer will be 1
Step-by-step explanation:
An oil tanker can be emptied by the main pump in 5 hours.
An auxilary pump can empty the tanker in 14 hours.
If the main pump is started at 7pm, when should the auxilary pump be started
so that the tanker is emptied by 11pm?
:
Let t = no. of hrs to run the Aux pump
:
The main pump will run 4 hr (7 - 11 pm)
:
Let the completed job = 1; (an empty Tanker)
:
The shared work equation
4%2F5 + t%2F14 = 1
Multiply equation by 70 to get rid of the equation, results:
14(4) + 5t = 70
56 + 5t = 70
5t = 70 - 56
5t = 14
t = 14%2F5
t = 2.8 hrs to run the aux pump
:
2.8 hr = 2 + .8(60) = 2 hrs 48 min
:
Subtract 2:48 from 11:00 = 8:12 PM start the aux pump
;
;
Check solution
4/5 + 2.8/14 =
.8 + .2 = 1
It should be 51 miles over 3 gallons.
