Answer:

The average speed on the return trip is 2.44 miles/h.                  

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the average speed we need to use the following equation:

\overline{v} = \frac{d}{t}

Where:

d: is the distance

t: is the time

Since the question is to find the average speed on the return trip, we will take the data of the time and speed of only the return trip.

\overline{v} = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{5 + 1/2}{2 + 1/4} = 2.44 miles/h                

Therefore, the average speed on the return trip is 2.44 miles/h.

I hope it helps you!

tim drives at an average speed of 80km per hour for 3 hours 35 minutes work out how many kilometres tim drives
Virty [35]

Answer:

286 2/3 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Recalling that 1 hour = 60 minutes, we convert '3 hours 35 minutes' to

3 + (35/60) hours, or 3 35/60 hours, or 3.5833 hours.

Since distance = (rate)(time),

the distance driven by tim is (80 km/hr)(3.5833 hrs) = 286 2/3 km

Solve 5c + 4 = -26
mr_godi [17]
<em>1) 5 c + 4 = - 26
5 c = -26 -4
5 c = -30
c = -30 / 5
c = -6    so correct option is B..

2) 3 x - x +2 = 12
2 x +2 = 12
2x = 12-2
2x = 10
x = 10/2
x= 5    so correct option is D

3 ) 3 ( x + 1 )+ 6 = 33
3x + 3 + 6 = 33
3x + 9 = 33
3x = 33-9
3x = 24
x = 24/3
x = 8   so correct option is B

4) y/-6=9
y=9 x -6
y= - 54   there is no such option i guess question is missing

5)(x +  4) /2 = 7
x +4 = 7 x 2
x + 4 = 14
x = 14-4
x = 10  so correct option is D

6)1/3 ( 2x - 8) = 4
2x/ 3 - 8 /3 = 4
2x - 8 / 3 = 4
2x - 8 = 4 x 3
2x - 8 = 12
2x = 12 + 8
2x = 20
x = 20/2
x = 10   so correct option is C

Which of the following pairs of numbers contains like fractions? A. 5⁄6 and 10⁄12 B. 3⁄2 and 2⁄3 C. 3 1⁄2 and 4 4⁄4 D. 6⁄7 and 1
ElenaW [278]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answers are:

A.

\frac{5}{6} and \frac{10}{12}

D.

\frac{6}{7} and 1\frac{5}{7}

<h2>Why?</h2>

To find which of the following pairs of numbers contains like fractions, we must remember that like fractions are the fractions that share the same denominator.

We are given two fractions that are like fractions. Those fractions are:

Option A.

\frac{5}{6} and \frac{10}{12}

We have that:

\frac{10}{12}=\frac{5}{6}

So, we have that the pairs of numbers

\frac{5}{6}

and

\frac{5}{6}

Share the same denominator, which is equal to 6, so, the pairs of numbers contains like fractions.

Option D.

\frac{6}{7} and 1\frac{5}{7}

We have that:

1\frac{5}{7}=1+\frac{5}{7}=\frac{7+5}{7}=\frac{12}{7}

So, we have that the pair of numbers

\frac{6}{7}

and

\frac{12}{7}

Share the same denominator, which is equal to 7, so, the pairs of numbers constains like fractions.

Also, we have that the other given options are not like fractions since both pairs of numbers do not share the same denominator.

The other options are:

\frac{3}{2},\frac{2}{3}

and

3\frac{1}{2},4\frac{4}{4}

We can see that both pairs of numbers do not share the same denominator so, they do not contain like fractions.

Hence, the answers are:

A.

\frac{5}{6} and \frac{10}{12}

D.

\frac{6}{7} and 1\frac{5}{7}

Have a nice day!
