Answer:

1 1/2 miles or 3/2 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We can represent the person's walking rate as the ratio 1/2 mile : 20 minutes. Since we can multiply both sides of a ratio without changing the rate, we can rewrite it as ---> 3*(1/2) miles : 3*20 minutes = 3/2 miles : 60 minutes =

1 1/2 miles : 1 hour

An alternative way would be to convert 20 minutes into 1/3 of an hour. We can set up an equation:

mph * 1/3 hour = 1/2 mile

Therefore, the mph must be 1/2 divided by 1/3, because we are multiplying by 1/3, and division is the opposite of multiplication.

mph = (1/2)/(1/3) = (1/2) * 3 = 3/2 or 1 1/2

1. The price of gas has increased over time due to inflation and other factors.
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation representing the price of gas for the years after 2000 is expressed as

y = 1.26(1.10)^x

Where x = 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 represent these years : 2000, 2002, 2004, 2006, 2008, and 2010, the table would be

1) x = 0(2000)

y = 1.26(1.10)^0

y = 1.3

2) x = 2(2002)

y = 1.26(1.10)^2

y = 1.5

3) x = 4(2004)

y = 1.26(1.10)^4

y = 1.8

4) x = 6(2004)

y = 1.26(1.10)^6

y = 2.2

5) x = 8(2006)

y = 1.26(1.10)^8

y = 2.7

6) x = 10(2008)

y = 1.26(1.10)^10

y = 3.3
