Speed = distance divided by time.

3h -> 4.8 miles

1h-> 4.8/3
= 1.6 miles

his speed is 1.6 miles per hour.

In London, the charge of a tour bus consists of a fixed rental price plus a per kilometre rate, that depends on the distance of

ella [17]

Using a linear function, we have that:

a) The fixed cost is of $10.

b) The equation is: C = 10 + 12d.

c) The cost of an 18 km trip is $226.

d) The distance traveled is of 20 km.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.

b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

For this problem, the slope is of m = 12. When d = 5, C(d) = 70, hence we find the fixed cost as follows:

C(d) = 12d + b

70 = 60 + b

b = 10.

Hence the equation is:

C(d) = 12d + 10.

For a trip of 18 km, d = 18, hence the cost is:

C(12) = 12 x 18 + 10 = $226.

When the cost is of $250, the distance is found as follows:

250 = 12d + 10

12d = 240

d = 240/12

d = 20 km.

What are the coordinates of vertex A of square ABCD?

bonufazy [111]

ABCD is a square . if the coordinates of three of its vertices are A(-1,2a), B(a,2a), C(a,0), find the coordinates of D. BC is obviously 2a (it's a vertical line) then AB must be 2a (notice AB is horizontal) so BC = AC because it is a square 2a = a+1 a=1

Find the volume of a cube with a side length of 4r3s2.

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

V = 64 r^(9) * s^(6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube is given by

V = s^3 where s is the side length

V = ( 4r^3s^2) ^3

We know that ( ab) ^c = a^c * b^c

V = 4^3 * r^3^3 * s^2^3

V = 64 * r^3^3 * s^2^3

We know that a^b^c = a^(b*c)

V = 64 r^(3*3) * s^(2*3)

V = 64 r^(9) * s^(6)

What is x/9 = 9/27 help plz

Irina18 [472]

<h3>QUESTION: </h3>

what is x/9 = 9/27 help plz

<h3>ANSWER AND SOLUTION: </h3>

SOLVING FOR X

Reduce first the fraction with 9

$\large \sf = \dfrac{x}{9} = \dfrac{ \cancel9}{ \cancel{27}}$

 $\large \sf = \dfrac{x}{9} = \dfrac{1}{3}$ 

Now simplify using cross-multiply

 $\large \sf = \dfrac{3x}{9} = 1$ 

 $\large \sf = 3x = 1 \times 9$ 

 $\large \sf = 3x = 9$ 

Lastly divide both sides

 $\large \sf = 3x \div 3 = 9 \div 3$ 

 $\large \sf = x = 9 \div 3$ 

 $\large \sf = x = 3$ 

<h3>FINAL ANSWER:</h3>

$\huge \orange{ \underline{ \boxed{ \sf{x = 3}}}}$

HOPE THIS HELP YOU! HAVE A NICE DAY!

Descibe the mothod of solving problems with numbers in standard form ?? I have 5 MIN

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer: A standard equation is set up like this: Ax + By = C (where A, B, and C represent numbers). To find the slope (or the rate at which something changes) you must divide the value of A by the value of B (A / B).
