The average speed is the distance divided by the time.
Total distance:
12.8 miles + 17.2 miles = 30 miles
Total time:
noon - 9:00 a.m. = 3 hours
6:00 p.m. - 1:00 p.m. = 5 hours
Total time = 3 hours + 5 hours = 8 hours
average speed = 30 miles / 8 hours = 3.75 miles per hour
The answer to 6 is repeating I believe
Represent the unknows with n and d.
Then n+d = 44 (# of coins)
and
$0.05n + $0.10d = $3.10 (value of coins)
Solving the first equation for n, we get n = 44-d. Subst. 44-d for n in the 2nd equation:
0.05(44-d) + 0.10d = 3.10
Then 2.20 - 0.05d + 0.10d = 3.10, or
2.20 + 0.05d = 3.10, or 0.05d = 0.90. Solving for d,
0.90
d = -------- = 18
0.05
There are 18 dimes and 44-18 nickels. How many nickels is that? ;)
