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.

Circle O has a circumference of approximately 44 in. What is the approximate length of the diameter, d? inches
LenKa [72]
The distance around a rectangle or a square is as you might remember called the perimeter. The distance around a circle on the other hand is called the circumference. It is calculated as follows:

C = 2pi(r)

From this, we can solve for r and evetually solve for the diameter.

44 = 2pi(r)
r = 7.00
d = 2r
d = 14
