Annie and her family are on their way to visit some family friends who live 820 miles away from them. Based on the route they ch

oose, they expect to complete their trip in three days. The distances and average speeds for the first two days driven are show below. First day: 6 hours at an average speed of 60 miles per hour Second day: 4 hours at an average speed of 65 miles per hour If the average speed on the third day is 50 miles per hour, how many more hours will it take for them to reach their family friends home?

Answer:

4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The distances and average speeds for the first two days driven are show below.

Step 1

We calculate the total distance covered in the first two days

First day: 6 hours at an average speed of 60 miles per hour

Hence:

1 hour = 60 miles

6 hours = x

x = 60 × 6

x = 360 miles

Second day: 4 hours at an average speed of 65 miles per hour

Hence:

1 hour = 65 miles

4 hours = x

x = 65 × 4

x = 260 miles

The distance covered for the first two days =

(360 + 260)miles

= 620 miles

Step 2

The total distance for the entire trip = 820 miles

Hence, the distance left to cover on the third day = (820 - 620)miles

= 200 miles

In the question, we are told:

If the average speed on the third day is 50 miles per hour,

The number of hours it will take for them to reach their family friends home is calculated using the formula

Time = Distance/Speed

Time = 200 miles/50 miles per hour

Time = 4 hours

Find the value of X, Z and Y.
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

x = 5; y = 138, z= 42

Step-by-step explanation:

4x- 17 = 3 [ opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal]

4x = 3+ 17 = 20; X= 20/4 = 5

138 + Z = 180( angle on a straight line)

Z is an alternate angles to the remaining angle off 138 forming the straight line.

z= 180-138 = 42 degrees

Y = 138 [ opposite angles of a regular quadilareral been equal]

Maryam's rectangular bedroom is 9 feet by 12 feet. What is the diagonal distance from one corner to the opposite corner?
ra1l [238]
Create a right triangle with the the two legs being sides of 9 and 12...then use the Pythagorean theorem to solve

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 

9^2 + 12^2 = c^2
81 + 144 = c^2 
225 = c^2 

Square root both sides to get c = 15 feet.

Please help. I need to know the strategy, the correct work, and to identify the error.
zysi [14]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

13x + 5 + 17x - 4.5 + x

NOTE: You can only add/subtract LIKE terms . Here we have  variable terms in x  (13x , 17x and x) and 2 constants ( 5 and 4.5).

Sarah's next line is

18x + 17x - 4.5 + x

This is incorrect . It looks like she  added 13x + 5 and got 18x!! Which is of course wrong because they are NOT LIKE terms. 5 is a constant and 13x is a variable term in x.

The third line is correct:-

35x - 4.5 + x.

She has added the 2 variables 17x and 18x.

Fourth line  is  30.5x + x. She's at it again - Trying to subtract 4.5 from 35x .

Last line 31.5x

She has added  the 2 terms in x correctly, but the final answer is wrong of course due to the earlier errors.
