Answer:
The average speed is
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
To find out the average speed divide the distance by the time
Let
s -----> average speed
d -----> the distance in feet
t ----> the time in minutes
we have
substitute
Simplify
She underestimated by 60 cents. To get this answer all you need to do is multiply 1 dollar times 12 which is $12 and then multiply $.30 by 12 and that gives you $3.60. Then you add the $12 to the $3.60 and that gives you $15.60 which is 60 cents over the estimation.
Answer:
Please clarify the question so I can answer :)
Step-by-step explanation:
. The amount of TIME spent driving (which depends on the SPEED of the car) is 5 hours. means time(speed) = 5. TIME and SPEED are your key words and 5 is the key number.
Ok this is a very question that can solved very easily. So we know that there three numbers, and they are consecutive, this means that they are all one bigger than the number before so for example 1,2, and 3 or 20, 21, and 22. These numbers are called consecutive. Now let's just pretend that the answer to this question is the variable "x". Now x is the smallest number in all the three numbers.
Using our knowledge of consecutive numbers we can say that the next to numbers will be one more than the number before so:
(x+1) and (x+2)
So we have our three numbers: x , x+1 , and x+2. Now let's set these numbers equal to 177.
177 = x + x + 1 + x + 2 → Combine like terms.
177 = 3x + 3 → Subtract 3 from both sides.
174 = 3x → Divide both sides by 3
58 = x
So that means that our first and smallest number is going to be 58 our second number will be +1 so 59 and our third number will be +2 so 60.
So the three numbers will be 58, 59, and 60.
Hope this helped.
