Answer:
Average speed is 37.35 mi/h
Step-by-step explanation:
given data
leave = 34 minutes before
church distance = 12.0 miles
average speed first 17 minutes = 5.0 mi/h
solution
so we find Total distance travel in first 17 minutes = speed × time
Total distance travel in first 17 minutes = 5 × 
Total distance travel in first 17 minutes = 1.416 mi
and
Distance Remaining = 12 - 1.416 = 10.584 mi
Time Remaining = 34 - 17 min = 17 min
so
remaining distance Average speed =
Average speed =
Average speed is 37.35 mi/h
For number 2 it's would be 12.8
Sorry I don't have time for number 3
Answer: On the 29th day
Step-by-step explanation:
According to this problem, no lilypad dies and the lilypads always reproduce, so we can apply the following reasoning.
On the first day there is only 1 lilypad in the pond. On the second day, the lilypad from the first reproduces, so there are 2 lilypads. On day 3, the 2 lilypads from the second day reproduce, so there are 2×2=4 lilypads. Similarly, on day 4 there are 8 lilypads. Following this pattern, on day 30 there are 2×N lilypads, where N is the number of lilypads on day 29.
The pond is full on the 30th day, when there are 2×N lilypads, so it is half-full when it has N lilypads, that is, on the 29th day. Actually, there are
lilypads on the 30th, and
lilypads on the 29th. This can be deduced multiplying succesively by 2.
