Answer:

39 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Velocity is the rate of change of distance in a given direction with time. Mathematically,

Velocity = Displacement/time

Like speed, velocity is measured in Km/h or m/s.

Given that the car travels at 54 km/h for first 20seconds,

since 60 seconds = 1 minute and

60 minutes  = 1 h,

20 seconds

= 20/(60 ×60) h

= 1/180 h

In the same vein,

30 seconds

= 30 / (60 ×60) h

= 1/120 h

10 seconds

= 10/(60 ×60) h

= 1/360 h

Hence  if the car travels 54 km/h for 10 seconds, the distance covered

= 54 × 1/180

= 3/10 Km

If the car travels 36km/h for next 30seconds, the distance covered

= 36 × 1/120

= 3/10 Km

If the car travels 18km/h for next 10 seconds, the distance covered

= 18 × 1/360

= 1/20 km

Total distance = 3/10 Km + 3/10 Km + 1/20 Km

= 13/20 Km

Total time spent = 20 + 30 + 10

= 60 seconds

= 1/60 h

Average velocity = 13/20 km/ 1/60 h

= 39 Km/h

If a spherical ball is enlarged so that its surface area is 9 times greater than its original surface area, then the original ra
luda_lava [24]
The surface area of a sphere is A = 4 \pi r^{2} and if the original S.A was is enlarged to have it 9 times greater, the radius would be multiplied by 3 or roughly 2.99626 rounded off to 3.0. 

For example, let us assign values.
Let A=90

A= 90*9 = 810

90 = 4 \pi   r^{2} 

    and    810 = 4 \pi  r ^{2}

the first r is 2.68 and the second r is 8.03

then, \frac{8.03}{2.68} = 2.99626  or rounded off to 3.

Alice has a total of 12 dimes and nickels. She has 2 more nickels than dimes
valkas [14]
This is a problem of system of linear equations in two variables. This concept of mathematics is very useful in real-life problems. You can solve a system by finding the solution. A solution of a system are the values of the variables that satisfies each equation in the system. So by knowing these concepts we can get a system of equation by analyzing each statement step by step, that is:

1. Alice has a total of 12 dimes and nickels.

Let the variables:

D: Dimes \\ N:Nickles

1st. Equation:

D+N=12

<span>2. She has 2 more nickels than dimes

2nd Equation:

N=D+2

Therefore our system of linear equations is:

</span>(1) \ D+N=12 \\ (2) \ N=D+2 \\ \\ Substituting \ (2) \ in \ (1): \\ D+(D+2)=12 \therefore 2D=10 \therefore D=5 \\ \\ Solving \ for \ N \ in \ (2): \\ N=5+2=7

Conclusion:

<span>Alice has 5 dimes and 7 nickels. </span>
