The average speed of his trip is = 12 mile/ hour
The total distance covered by the driver = 240 miles
The rate at which he traveled = 12 miles per hour
Therefore, the time he used to cover his distance
= 240/12
= 20 hrs
But average speed = distance/ time
= 240/ 20
= 12 miles/ hour
Therefore, the average speed of his trip is = 12 mile/ hour

1) Answer: 21
As y varies directly with x, this means that the ratio y/x is always a constant.
In other words, the equation can be written as y = kx, where k is a constant term.
Thus,

y = 21
2) Answer: C
Exactly the same process as above.
Here's another method:
25 = k(140)
k = 25/140 = 5/28
Thus, when y = 36, 36 = kx
36 = 5/28(x)
36 * 28/5 = x; x = 201.6
3) 9 = k(12)
9/12 = k and k = 3/4
4) On the graph, it hits y = 1 at x = 4.
Thus, we can rewrite the equation as:
y = (1/4)x, where the constant term is 1/4
5) y = kx
The distance represents the x-ordinates, and the time represents the y-ordinates.
9.5/475 = 0.02
4 = 0.02(x), in hours.
x = 200 miles.
X^2 + y^2 = 8
X-y=0 so x = y
replace x = y into X^2 + y^2 = 8
y^2 + y^2 = 8
2y^2 = 8
y^2 = 8/2
y^2 = 4
y = - 2 and y = 2
because x = y
so x = - 2 and x = 2
solutions:
x= - 2 and x = + 2
y= - 2 and y = + 2
