Answer:

  4/13

Step-by-step explanation:

Driving time is ...

  time = distance/speed

Then the ratio of times is ...

  6/20 : 6/30 : 6/40

  = 3/10 : 1/5 : 3/20

If we multiply by 20, we can get integer ratios:

  = 6 : 4 : 3

The middle ratio number represents the time spent at 30 mph, and the total of all ratio numbers represents the total driving time. Then the fraction spent at 30 mph is ...

  4/(6+4+3) = 4/13

_____

Total driving time was 13/20 hours, or 39 minutes. Of that time, 12 minutes was spent driving at 30 mph.

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

1 Adult ticket=$21.50 ; 1 Children ticket=$15.50

Step-by-step explanation:

3A+4C=126.50

2A+5C=120.50

We find the price of adult tickets 1st.

15A+20C=632.5

8A+20C=482

7A=632.5-482=150.5

1A=21.50

Now we find Children ticket

6A+8C=253

6A+15C=361.50

7C=108.50

1C=15.50

3. Before tax, Louise spent a total of $38 on the items below at Starbucks
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

  47.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount Louise spent on Frappuccinos was 4×$4.50 = $18. The fraction that is of the total is ...

  Fraps/Total = $18/$38 = 9/19

That can be converted to a percentage by multiplying by 100%:

  9/19 = (9/19)×100% ≈ 47.4%

Louise spent 47.4% of the $38 on Frappuccinos.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The decimal equivalent of 9/19 is a repeating decimal with an 18-digit repeat.
