Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided number 51.4

We need to identify the number closet to 51.4

The provided options are: 51.41, 51.39, 51.041, 51.402

To find which is closet number simply find the difference between the provided number and options given, As the difference will decrease the number gets closer.

Find the difference between 51.41 and 51.4

51.41-51.4=0.01

Find the difference between 51.4 and 51.39

51.4-51.39=0.01

Find the difference between 51.4 and 51.041

51.4-51.041=0.359

Find the difference between 51.402 and 51.4

51.402-51.4=0.002

Here, 0.002 is the minimum difference that means the number 51.402 is the closet to 51.4

Hence, the correct option is D) 51.402

At noon Joyce drove to the lake at 30 miles per hour. but she made the long walk back home at 4 miles per hour. How long did she

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

60 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

let d = distance to the lake

Using: time = distance ÷ speed

Create expressions for the time it takes for each journey:

Drive: $t_1=\dfrac{d}{30}$

Walk: $t_2=\dfrac{d}{4}$

If total time = 17 hours

$\implies t_1+t_2=17$

$\implies \dfrac{d}{30}+\dfrac{d}{4}=17$

$\implies \dfrac{17d}{60}=17$

$\implies 17d=1020$

$\implies d=\dfrac{1020}{17}$

$\implies d=60$

Therefore she walked 60 miles
