A plane flew 525 miles in 1.75 hours. Find the average speed of the plane.

We are trying to find the average speed of the plane, which is mph, or \dfrac{\textrm{miles}}{\textrm{hour}}. Using proportions, we can find the average speed of the plane in mph:

\dfrac{525 \,\, \textrm{miles}}{1.75 \,\,\textrm{hours}} = \dfrac{x \,\, \textrm{miles}}{1 \,\,\textrm{hour}}

  • Use the information from the problem to create a proportion. Remember that we are looking for mph, so we will call that x.

\dfrac{525}{1.75} \,\textrm{miles} = x \,\textrm{miles}

  • Multiply the entire equation by 1 \,\textrm{hour}

\dfrac{525}{1.75} = 300 = x

  • Divide both sides of the equation by 1 \,\textrm{mile} to clear both sides of the mile unit

The average speed of the plane is 300 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • 1

vector AB(3-(-6); 5-7)

vector AB(9;-2)

AB= \sqrt{9^{2}+(-2)^{2}  } = \sqrt{85}

  • 2

M is the midpoint of AB

we have B(-5;10) and M(1;7)

let A(x;y)

(x-5)/2 = 1 ⇒ x-5 = 2⇒ x = 7

(10=y)/2 = 7⇒ 10+y = 14 ⇒y= 4

so : A(7;4)

  • 3

the center of the circle is the midponit of the line joining both ends of the diameter

let A(x;y) be the other end

(-2+x)/2 = 2 ⇒ -2+x = 4⇒ x= 6

(5=y) = -1 ⇒ 5+y = -2 ⇒ y= -7

so the coordinates of the other end are (6; -7)

  • 4

A,B and C are collinear such as AB=BC so b is the midpoint of AC

(-5+1)/2 = y ⇒ y = -4/2 ⇒ y = -2

((-3=x)/2 = 7 ⇒ -3+x = 14 ⇒ x = 17

so x= 17 and y = -2

A store is having a sale on walnuts and chocolate chips. For 2 pounds of walnuts and 5 pounds of chocolate chips, the total cost
oksian1 [2.3K]
It will be $2.50 for each pound of walnuts, and it will be $1 for each pound of chocolate chips.

I know this hold true because when we multiply $2.50 by 2, we get $5, and add that to the other $5 from the chocolate chips and we will get $10. We can also multiply $2.50 by 8 and add $3 from chocolate chips to get $20 + $3, or $23.

A cooler has 12 apple juices and 15 grape juices. 9 of the apple juices are sugar free and 5 of the grape juices are sugar free.
antoniya [11.8K]
To me: given that the juice is sugar free means that I can ignore the 3 sugar apple juices and the 10 sugr grape juices.

Therefore the field of drinks is 14 sugar free drinks and the changes that it is apple juice, is 9:14 or 9/14.

If, on the other hand, the problem is saying that the juice must be sugar free and also apple, that would be 9/27 or 1/3
