Answer:

60 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Total distance covered d = 440 miles

Average speed in the first 4 hours v1 = 50 mph

Total time taken for the whole trip t = 8:00 to 4:00pm

t = 16:00-8:00 = 8 hours

Firstly we need to calculate the distance covered during the first 4 hours;

d1 = average speed × time = v1 × t1

t1 = 4

d1 = 50 × 4 = 200 miles

Then we need to calculate the distance covered in the second period of the journey;

d = d1 + d2

d2 = d - d1

Substituting the values;

d2 = 440 - 200

d2 = 240 miles

The time taken for the second period of travel t2;

t2 = t -t1 = 8-4

t2 = 4 hours

Average speed = distance travelled ÷ time taken

The average speed for the second part of the trip v2 is;

v2 = d2 ÷ t2

Substituting t2 and d2;

v2 = 240 miles ÷ 4 hours

v2 = 60 mph

The average speed during the second part of the trip is 60 mph

£620 is divided between Malachy, Paul & Brian so that Malachy gets twice as much as Paul, and Paul gets three times as much
geniusboy [140]

Answer: Paul gets £186

Step-by-step explanation:

Paul has 1/2 as much as Malachy, and Brian has 1/3 as much Paul, therefore Brian has 1/6 as much as Malachy.

1/2 * 1/3 = 1/6

So Malachy’s amount equals 1 in this equation, Paul’s amount equals 1/2 in this equation, and Brian’s amount equals 1/6 in this equation.

1 + 1/2 + 1/6 = 1 + 3/6 + 1/6 = 1 4/6

Now, divide 620 by 1 4/6 to find Malachy’s amount.

620/1 4/6 = 372

Now, divde 372 by 2 to get Paul’s amount.

372/2 = 186

Andrej [43]

Answer:

∠AOB = 120°

∠BOC = 140°

∠BOD = 140°

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find X !

Full circle is 360°

360 = (2x + 80) + (5x + 40) + 4x + x

360 = 12x + 120

240 = 12x

x = 20°

Substitute the X

∠AOB ≡ (2x + 80) =

(2(20) + 80) = 120°

∠BOC ≡ (5x + 40) =

(5(20) + 40) = 140°

∠BOD = ∠AOB + ∠DOA ≡

120 + x = 120 + 20 = 140°

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know they had got $22,553 which is 90% more than last year. With this information we know:

190% = $22,553

1% = $22,553/190

1% = $118.70

100% = $11870

So overall it would be $11870 which they had got last year
