To find out the average rate at which she traveled, take 254 miles and divide it by 5 hours.
265/5 = 53 miles per hour.
Alicia's average speed was 53 miles per hour.

The relationship between the number of gallons of water in a tank and number of hours is proportional. One point on the line mod

Over [174]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I am assuming the tank starts empty. It means that in 1 hour the tank has half that water, or 3600 gallons. And the good thing of lines passing through 0.0 is that the value at 1 IS the slope we need. ie 3600.

At this point it's easy to find that if in 2 hours it filled 1/10th of the tank, in 20 hours the tank will be full.
