Answer:

1,460 hours per year.

113,880 hours in a lifetime.

Step-by-step explanation:

Great question, it is always good to ask away and get rid of any doubts that you may be having.

Let's assume that on an average day Americans drive 4 hours a day. This includes going and coming from work as well as any groceries they might need to do. Since there are 365 days in a year we can multiply this by the hours a day driven.

365*4 = 1,460

We can "guesstimate" that on average an American drives 1,460 hours per year.

Based on my research the average lifetime of an American is 78 years old. We can now multiply this by the number of hours driven in a year to have an idea of the number of hours driven in a lifetime.

1,460*78 = 113,880

On average we "guesstimate" that an American drives 113,880 hours in a lifetime.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

Graph the equation<br> y=-2x+1
Fofino [41]

Start by plotting the y-intercept at (0,1).

From that point, count "up 2, right 1" to get a second point on your graph.  

If needed repeat that "up 2, right 1" from that second point to get a third point.

Draw the line that connects these 2 or 3 points.
