<h3>Answer:  40 minutes</h3>

============================================================

Explanation:

The distance traveled is d = 80 miles.

When going to work, her speed is r = 60 mph. She takes t = d/r = 80/60 = 4/3 hours which converts to 80 minutes. Multiply by 60 to go from hours to minutes.

Notice how the '80' shows up twice (in "80 miles" and "80 minutes"). This is because traveling 60 mph is the same as traveling 1 mile per minute.

-----------------

Now as she's coming home, her speed becomes r = 40 and she takes t = d/r = 80/40 = 2 hours = 120 minutes.

The difference in time values is 120 - 80 = 40 minutes.

Her commute back home takes 40 more minutes compared to the morning drive to work.

Total revenue is 3,000 cost of goods 1,500 total selling expence is 500 what is profit
12345 [234]
Cost of goods = 1,500
Selling expense = 500

Total cost in selling = 1500 + 500 = 2000

Profit = Total Revenue - Total cost in selling = 3000 - 2000 = 1000

Profit = 1000

Hope this explains it.

Five oranges were selected at random from a crate of 53 oranges. Their diameters were measured, in millimeters, and then recorde
Olin [163]
Ok so mean means average so exmple
mean of 1,2,3+5 would be (1+2+3+5)/4
(sum of terms)/(number of terms)=mean so

number of terms=5 since 5 oranges
sum=(46+39+53+61+49)

so mean=(46+39+53+61+49)/5=248/5=49.6

so the answer would be 49.6 (estimateed to be 50)
