Answer:
20 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly we need to know that distance = speed * time
In this particular question, we have the time and the speed, we are only told to find the distance.
Now as we can see, the units are not consistent. While the average speed is 30mph, the time is not in hours but minutes. So practically, we have to convert the time to hours.
Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, the number of hours in 40 minutes would be 40/60 = 2/3 hours.
Now we can proceed to find the distance. We simply multiply the average speed with the time.
Hence, that is 30 * 2/3 = 20 meters
I think it's D. 7 times out of 34 times
I’m pretty sure it’s D. 84.4
Answer:
The third answer. ( John's boat was farther from the deck at the beginning but Roberta's boat traveled more quickly)
Step-by-step explanation:
You already know that in the beginning John's boat begins 20 miles from the dock. Now you need to find Roberta! When each boat begins from the dock, it means when x=0. So lets insert that! y= 6(0)+15. You get 15. Now you know that its either the 3rd or 4th answer. The second piece of info you have for John is that it is 45 miles from the dock after 5 hours. Again, in the beginning it started with 20 miles. 45-20= 25 miles TRAVELED in 5 hours. For Roberta, we need to insert 5 in the equation for x. y=6(5)+15. You get: 45 again! But... Roberta started at 15 miles. So 45-15 is 30 miles. She traveled 30 miles in 5 hours. The only answer that is matching to our problem solving is the third answer. Hope this helps!
