In 33 hours, a car travels 120 miles. What is the speed of the car?

2 answers:

4 0

So a car's speed is measured in mph. To figure out the speed gone in an hour you would take the overall miles of 120 and divide it by time:
120/33=3.636 miles per hour

Speed = distance / time
Speed = 120 / 33
Speed = 3.64 miles per hour

If x, y, and z are integers greater than 1, and (327)(510)(z) = (58)(914)(xy), then what is the value of x?

algol [13]

Answer:

<u>Statements (1) and (2) TOGETHER are NOT sufficient.</u>

Explanation:

As in the equation (327)(510)(z) = (58)(914)(xy) there are THREE variables in total i.e. "x", "y" and "z" hence minimum three equations are required to find out values of all variables. Hence,

If the given number of equations is equal to total variable used in any of the equation, values of all the variables can be find out otherwise there can be unlimited number of solutions.

So, value of "x" cannot be determined with the given data.

A snail can move 1/30 miles in 1/3 hour. How fast does a snail move in miles /hours

bekas [8.4K]

Answer: 1/10 miles/hour

To find how fast a snail moves in miles per hour, we can find the unit rate using a proportion.

The unit rate is the amount per one unit. In this problem, the unit is for one hour. One way to find the unit rate is by using a proportion.

<h2>Proportions</h2>

Proportions look like two fractions set equal to each other with a missing variable to solve.

<h3>State our variables</h3>

let <em>x</em> be the number of miles per hour

<h3>Write a proportion</h3>

The first fraction has a number for the numerator (top) and denominator (bottom), because the question gives us the information. The second fraction has a missing value, <em>x</em>, that we are solving for. We can write <em>x</em> in the numerator.

$\displaystyle{\frac{\frac{1}{30}\ mi}{\frac{1}{3}\ hr} = \frac{x\ mi}{1\ hr}}$

<h2>Solve</h2>

We can solve by finding the scale factor. The scale factor is the number we can multiply the numerator by to find <em>x</em>.

<h3>Find the scale factor</h3>

Start with the proportion.

$\displaystyle{\frac{\frac{1}{30}\ mi}{\frac{1}{3}\ hr} = \frac{x\ mi}{1\ hr}}$

To find the scale factor,

Take the denominator from the fraction with a variable: $1\ hr$
Take the denominator from the fraction that has no variable: $\frac{1}{3}\ hr$
Divide step 1 by step 2 and solve: $1\ hr\ \div\ \frac{1}{3}\ hr = 3$

Our scale factor is <u>3</u>.

<h3>Solve for x</h3>

We can find <em>x</em> by multiplying the numerator in the first fraction by the scale factor. This is because <em>x</em> is also in the numerator.

$\displaystyle{\frac{\frac{1}{30}\ mi}{\frac{1}{3}\ hr} = \frac{(\frac{1}{30}\ mi)*3}{1\ hr}}$

$\displaystyle{\frac{\frac{1}{30}\ mi}{\frac{1}{3}\ hr} = \frac{\frac{3}{30}\ mi}{1\ hr}}$

Simplify 3/30 by dividing the fraction by 3.

$\displaystyle{\frac{\frac{1}{30}\ mi}{\frac{1}{3}\ hr} = \frac{\frac{1}{10}\ mi}{1\ hr}}$

x = 1/10

∴ a snail moves 1/10 miles per hour.

_______x (-4) = 48.

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

-12

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to divide 48 to (-4) and it equals to -12

so you multiply -12 to (-4) and it gives you 48
