$9 per hour for 14 hours the first week can be found by doing 9 • 14, which equals 126.
In the first week, Erika earned $126.
$9 per hour for 20 hours for the second week can be found by doing 9 • 20, which equals 180.
In the second week, Erika earned $180.
To find the total amount Erika earned in both weeks, add how much she made in week 1 to how much she made in week 2.
126 + 180 = 306
Erika made $306 during these 2 weeks.
The answer is 13, i got this by using the pythagorean theorem. a^2 + b^2 = c^2. in this case it would be 84^2 + b^2 = 85^2. then that would turn into 7056 + b^2 = 7225, subtract both sides by 7056 to get b^2 = 169, then square 169 to get 13 :)
Add the mileage together to find total miles.
Add the hours together.
Divide total miles by total hours.
305 + 190 = 495 miles
5 + 4 = 9 hours.
495 / 9 = 55 miles per hour.
The average speed was 55 miles per hour.
