We can multiply both the numerator and denominator by ANY number (as long as you multiply both the numerator and denominator by the SAME number) to get an equivalent fraction
examples would be 2/12 (numerator and denominator multiplied by 2)3/18 (by 3)
4/24 (by 4) etc.
Answer:
60 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
First, put the equation in a fraction.
You would put 180 up top because people always say miles per hour not the other way around.
You can see the dividing line as your "per" and your "hour" would be the bottom number.
To find the unit rate, you will divide the numerator (180) and the denominator (3).
Your final answer should be 60 miles per hour.
The population of a town has approximately doubled every 17 years since 1950.
the equation P=
where Po is the population of the town in 1950, is used to model the population, P, of the town t years after 1950.
When t=17 yrs
P=2
for 1 year
The equation becomes
P =
-------------(1)
Our original equation is
----------------------------------(2)
equating expression 1 and 2

Cancelling
from both sides we get

t/17=k
⇒k=t/17 is the solution.
your answer is either 7.6 or 10.0
