Answer:

Average speed = 4 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as

Total distance to travel = 6 mile

now, for first 2 mile the avg speed = 6 mph

for next 2 mile the avg speed = 4 mph

and for rest 2 mile the avg speed = 3 mph

so,  the average speed of the Richard = \frac{3}{\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{4}+ \frac{1}{3}  }

Total Avg speed = \frac{3}{\frac{9}{12} }

Or,                       = \frac{3}{9}×12

                           = 4

So the total Average speed = 4 mph         (Answer)

Bob and mark talk about their families. Bob says he has 3 kids, the product of their ages is 72. He gives another clue: the sum
taurus [48]
I can only give possible combinations of the ages. This is because only the product is given. Had the sum of all ages been given, possible combinations would boil down into 1 combination.

3 kids with a youngest. This means that the ages are not the same.
We do prime factorization to get the age combination.

72 ÷ 2 = 36
36 ÷ 2 = 18
18 ÷ 2 =   9
  9 ÷ 3 =   3
  3 ÷ 3 =   1

1 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 72

Possible combination with no repeating number.

1 x 8 x 9 = 72
2 x 4 x 9 = 72
4 x 6 x 3 = 72
1 x 6 x 12 = 72

Evaluate -Z + 7.49 for Z = -7.1
luda_lava [24]
14.59

To solve, simply plug -7.1 into -Z. Since Z is negative in the equation, it will turn the Z that’s given to us into a negative. Since that Z is already negative, it will now become a positive since that’s what two negatives being multiplied make. This is what your problem will look like:

-(-7.1) + 7.49
7.1 + 7.49 = 14.59
