Answer:
Her usual rate is 0.8333 miles per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
The velocity formula is given by:
In which d is the distance and t is the time.
She completed the first half of the walk 1 mi/h faster than usual
Her usual rate is v. 1mph faster is v + 1.
The second half of the walk 2 mi/h slower than the first half.
The first half is v + 1.
2mph slower is v + 1 - 2 = v - 1. Then
Total rate:
7.2 hours, and 6 miles. So
One half is v+1 and the other is v - 1. This is why each is multiplied by 0.5.
Her usual rate is 0.8333 miles per hour.
.5 is basically 1/2. We know this because .5 written as a fraction is 50/100 which you can simplify to 1/2.
6/10 is greater than 1/2. You can find this out by converting 1/2 to tenths. Multiply the numerator and the denominator by 5 to get 5/10. From there you can easily see that 6/10 > 5/10.
As for the number line simply use 10ths: 1/10, 2/10, 3/10 ... and input 6/10 and 5/10 in the appropriate areas.
B) In y = 25x, the value of y is 25 times the value of x, and in y = x + 25, the value of y is 25 more than the value of x.
Out of all the answer choices, b makes the most sense.
25x can be translated as 25 times x.
x + 25 can be translated as 25 more than a number.
Hope this helps!
