Answer:
150 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
If 1/2 of an inch is 20 miles, we can assume that 1/4 of an inch is 10 miles, since half of 1/2 is 1/4 and 1/2 of 20 is 10.
Equipped with this information, we can divide 3 by 1/2 or multiply 3 by the reciprical, 2/1 to get how much we should multiply 20 by.
3*2=6
20*6=120
Then we can multiply 10 by 3 and add that on our answer, since there are still 3/4s left and 1/4=10 miles.
10*3=30
120+30=150
The actual distance is 150 miles.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
The rate is going to be the same as the distance travelled in 1 hour. The units will be different.
Formula
d = r * t
Givens
d = 558 miles
t = 3 hours
Problem A
r = d / t
r = 558/ 3 = 186 miles / hr
Problem B
Givens
r = 186 miles / hour
t = 1 hour
d = ?
Solution
d = 186 mi/hr * 1 hr
d = 186 miles
<u>Note</u>
This looks really trivial, but it's not. You have to learn to see the difference between a number and its units. It's not very often that the numbers will be the same, but if the units differ, then it is an entirely different question.
Answer:
ABC is isosceles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the consecutive integers be x and x+1.
Then,
x + (x + 1) = 23
=> x + x + 1 = 23
=> 2x + 1 = 23
=> 2x = 23 - 1
=> 2x = 22
=> x = 22/2
=> x = 11
So, the integers are:
x = 11
and x + 1 = 11 + 1 = 12
So, the consecutive integers are 11 and 12.
