The standard formula is: distance = speed x time. From this, we know that speed = distance/time and that time = distance/speed.

a. If r = speed, then r = distance/time. From the information presented in "a", you cannot calculate Roy's speed. 

b, c. Because the time is the limiting value in the question, use the "time" version of the formula: time = distance / speed 

Because Roy must be at the ceremony in "less than or equal to" 2 hours, we set up an inequality. 
2 <= distance / speed (which = r) 
therefore, 2 <= distance / r 

Because Roy has already travelled 30 miles, he has only 120 miles remaining. 
2 <= 120 / r 

Solve for "speed": 
2r <= 120 
r <= 60 
You must be careful about how you interpret this answer. Remember hat "r" is the MINIMUM speed which solves the equation. Therefore, to make it to the wedding on time, Roy must drive at least 60 mph.

Melissa used 4 cups of sugar to bake 54 cookies. If she’s only used 1 cup of sugar, what would be an equivalent ratio of cups to

daser333 [38]

Answer:

$\frac{2}{27}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given that melissa used 4 cups of sugar to bake 54 cookies.

That means 1 cup of sugar will be used to bake $\frac{54}{4}=\frac{27}{2}$ by unitary method

We have to find the ratio of cups to the cookies

We are using 1 cup of sugar

And cookies will be $\frac{27}{2}$

$\text{equivalent ratio}=\frac{1}{\frac{27}{2}}=\frac{2}{27}$

The Midpoint of AB dkdldl

Nutka1998 [239]

The Midpoint of AB is (1,0).

Given that:

In line AB, where the coordinates of A is (3,1) and coordinates of B is (-1,-1).

To find:

The Midpoint of line AB.

So, according the question

We know that,

The midpoint M of a line segment AB with endpoints A (x₁, y₁) and B (x₂, y₂) has the coordinates M ( $\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2} , \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2}$ ).
