Answer:

15 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

the 2 mph is a red herring. If there is a rate of 10 mph, and the trip took 1.5 hours, the 1 hour=10 miles, and the .5=5 miles, add em up and its 15 miles

Answer: the school is 2.5 miles from Sue's home.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the distance of the school from Sue's home.

Time = distance/speed

Sue walked from her home to her school at a constant rate of 2 miles per hour. It means that the time it took her to walk to the school is

x/2

She picked up her bicycle and rode back at a constant rate of 10 miles per hour. The distance covered is the same and the time spent in riding back home is

x/10

If the round trip took 1.5 hours, it means that

x/2 + x/10 = 1.5

Multiplying through by 10, it becomes

5x + x = 15

6x = 15

x = 15/6

x = 2.5 miles

It appears that none of your option choices are correct,, are you sure you copied them right ? I will show you how to solve this and how I got my answer.
The first step for solving this is to add the numbers in the parenthesis.
3 × 11 × 2 - 14 ÷ 7
Divide -14 by 7.
3 × 11 × 2 - 2
Divide the first 3 numbers together.
66 - 2
Subtract the numbers together to get your final answer.
64

∠ABC = ∠CDA (given)

∠BCA = ∠DAC (given)

CA = AC (common side)

ASA congruence criterion = when two angles of two triangles are equal and their included side is also equal, we can consider those triangles to be congruent to each other.

Since two angles in triangle △ABC and△CDA are equal and since their included side is also equal we can conclude that they are congruent.

Therefore, △ABC ≅ △CDA under the ASA congruence criterion.

find the equation of a line that passes through (-3,1) and (-1,-2) and write it in standard form. please help me !

Find the slope first
slope=(2-1)/(-1+3)=1/4=.25

now use the slope and either point to write in point slope form
y-1=.25(x-2)
y-1=¼x-½

to rationalize all the denominators multiply by the last common multiple, here we get 4
4y-4=x-2

then put in the correct order

x-4y=-2

Answer:

-5/2 x -33/4

Step-by-step explanation:

(-11/2 x + 3) -2 (-11/4 x -5/2)

(-11/2 x + 3/1) -2 (-11/4 x -5/2)

The LCM of 2 and 1 is 2, and the LCM of 4 and 2 is 4.

(-11/2 x + 6/2) -2 (-11/4 x -20/4)

( -5/2x) -2 (-31/4)

-5/2x -2 -31/4

-5/2x -2/1 -31/4

LCM of -2 -31/4 is 4

-2/4 -31/4

-33/4

-5/2x -33/4 in simplest form.
