Answer:

2.4 miles per hours

Step-by-step explanation:

if she traveled 1/5 of a mile in order for you ro do this you must first teun it into a full mile so times it by the required amount to equal one which would be five.

1/5 of a mile x 5 = 1

you must do this also to the time

5 minutes x 5 = 25 minutes

it takes her 25 minutes to travel one mile so because miles per hour is a ration you must find the amount in hours and not minutes.

So you must divide the hour equivilent by 25 minutes.

so if 1 hour equals 60 minutes

60 divided by 25 = 2.4

that is how you find miles per hour

Hey! Can someone check my answers?

The greatest common factor is the biggest number taken from the values.

Q1. The answer is A. 5y^6

$20 y^{9} +5 y^{6}= 4*5 y^{9}+5 y^{6}$
Since $x^{a}* x^{b} =x^{a+b}$ , then $x^{9}= x^{3}* x^{6}$

Back to our expression:
$4*5 y^{9}+5 y^{6}=4*5 y^{3}*y^{6}+5 y^{6}=4 y^{3}*5y ^{6}+ 5y ^{6}*1=5 y^{6} (4y ^{3} +1)$
The greatest common factor is thus $5 y^{6}$

Q2. The answer is D. 12xy^2

$12x y^{5}+60 x^{4} y^{2} -24 x^{3} y^{3}=12x y^{5}+5*12 x^{4} y^{2} -2*12 x^{3} y^{3}$
We will use the rule $x^{a}* x^{b} =x^{a+b}$ to factorise the exponents:
$12x y^{5}+5*12 x^{4} y^{2} -2*12 x^{3} y^{3}= \\ =12x*y^{2}*y^{3}+5*12*x* x^{3} *y^{2}-2*12x* x^{2} *y*y^{2}= \\ =12xy^{2}*y^{3}+12xy^{2}*5 x^{3} -12xy^{2}*2 x^{2} y= \\ =12xy^{2}(y^{3}+5 x^{3}-2 x^{2} y)$
The greatest common factor is thus $12xy^{2}$
