Answer:

  30 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d represent the distance to the island. The relation between time, speed, and distance is ...

  time = distance/speed

so the total time for the round trip is ...

  d/15 +d/10 = 5

Multiplying by 30, we get

  2d +3d = 150

  d = 150/5 = 30

The island was 30 miles from the harbor.

Two competing gyms each offer childcare while parents work out gym a charged $9.00 per hour of childcare. Gym b charges $0.75 pe
andriy [413]

Answer:

D.)Gym B and Gym A charge the same hourly rate for childcare.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to find out how much Gym B charges for a full hour. There are 60 minutes in an hour. Divide this by 5 to determine how many 5 minute increments are in an hour: 12. A parent paying for 1 hour of child care will need to make 12 payments of .75. 12 times .75 equals $9.00. This means that both gyms charge the same amount per hour.

Timed quiz help please! <br> 2 2/5 kilometers in 3 3/4 minuets.
shepuryov [24]

Answer: 16/25 (sorry I'm not really sure bc I'm just  a middle schooler)

Step-by-Step explanation:

2 2/5 km=2.4 kilometers

3 3/4 minutes=3.75 minutes

2.4/3.75=240/375

240/375=48/75=16/25=64/100=0.64

0.64 km/minute (0.64 km per minute)

you can solve the problem using the fractions...

2 2/5=12/5

3 3/4=15/4

(12/5)/(15/4)=(12/5)*(4/15)=48/75=16/25=0.64 again, or you can simplify before multiplying...

(12/5)/(15/4)=(12/5)*(4/15)=(4/5)*(4/5)=16/25...
