Answer:

750kmph

Step-by-step explanation:

Average is sum of all parts divided by the number of parts.

Let Stot be average speed for total trip (800kmph).

Let S1 be speed for first quarter of trip (950kmph).

Let S2, S3, and S4 be the speeds of each of the remaining quarters respectively.

Let Sans be the average speed for the remaining three quarters of the trip (a.k.a. The Answer!).

Stot = (S1 + S2 + S3 + S4) / 4

800kmph = (950kmph + S2 + S3 + S4) / 4

3200kmph = 950kmph + S2 + S3 + S4

3200kmph - 950kmph = 2250kmph = S2 + S3 + S4

Divide both sides by 3.

2250kmph / 3 = (S2 + S3 + S4) / 3 = Sans

Sans = 750kmph

What is the equation for this line

pogonyaev

The equation of the line is $y=\frac{-1}{5} x-\frac{21}{5}$ .

Solution:

The points on the line are (–6, –3) and (4, –5).

$x_{1}=-6, y_{1}=-3, x_{2}=4, y_{2}=-5$

Slope of the line:

$$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

$$m=\frac{-5-(-3)}{4-(-6)}$

$$m=\frac{-5+3}{4+6}$

$$m=\frac{-2}{10}$

$$m=\frac{-1}{5}$

Point-slope formula:

$y-y_{1}=m\left(x-x_{1}\right)$

$$y-(-3)=\frac{-1}{5}(x-(-6))$

$$y+3=\frac{-1}{5}(x+6)$

$$y+3=\frac{-1}{5} x-\frac{6}{5}$

Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation.

$$y=\frac{-1}{5} x-\frac{21}{5}$

The equation of the line is $y=\frac{-1}{5} x-\frac{21}{5}$ .

Ingram Co. manufactures office furniture. During the most productive month of the year, 3,500 desks were manufactured at a total

Lorico [155]

The cost of manufacturing $x$ units is

$C=ax+b$ , where $a$ cost per unit and $b$ fixed cost.

Given that

$3500a+b=84400\\ 1100a+b=46000$

Subtract the second equation from the second,

$(3500-1100)a=84400-46000\\ a=16$

The variable cost per unit is $\$16$ .

mixer [17]

If a triangle is inscribed in a circle such that one side of that triangle is a diameter of the circle, then the angle of the triangle that is opposite the diameter is a right angle.

Therefore we have the equation:

5x = 90 <em>divide both sides by 5</em>

x = 18

<h2>Answer: A: 18</h2>
