Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

295 (miles to drive altogether) - 115 (miles already driven) = 180 (miles left to drive)

115 (miles already driven) / 2 (how many hours it took to reach 115 miles) = 57.5 (miles per hour)

180 (miles left to drive) / 57.5 (miles per hour) = 3.13 (hours it will take to reach the 295-mile mark at a rate of speed of 57.5 miles per hour)

So, you will have to drive more miles per hour than 57.5 miles per hour to be able reach the 295-mile goal, because it would take approximately 3 hours to drive the remaining 180 miles.

You will have to drive AT LEAST 72 miles each hour, and then 36 miles in the half hour to be able to reach the 295-mile mark.

I hope this helps, and is a thorough enough explanation :)

Need an explanation on number 44 to why E is correct
aliina [53]

Before we can make sure that E is correct, we need to make the denominator is equal with questions and the choices or convert into decimal.

2/3 = 0.66

1/3=0.33

1/5=0.2

2/6=1/3 = 0.33

1/2 = 0.5

7/10 = 0.7

7/9 = 0.77

The question is :

2/3 < x < 7/9

0.66 < x < 0.77

We need to divide into 2 parts :

0.66 < x

x < 0.77

So we need to find the answer that x is greater that 0.66 and we got 7/10. And 7/10 is less than 7/9.

Hope this helps. Please ask if you don't understand.

What is the solution to the inequality? -3x &lt; 24 
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

x > -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide both sides by -3 to get x by itself. Dividing by a negative number will switch the less-than symbol to a greater-than symbol. -3x ÷ -3 = x and 24 ÷ -3 = -8. When you put it all together, you get x > -8

x=126 by dividing both sides by 2 to isolate the variable
