Sid walked 6 miles, which is 3/5 of the total distance.

Divide 6 with 3

6/3 = 2

2 miles is the walking distance for 1/5

Multiply 5 to both sides

2 (x 5) = 1/5 (x 5)

10 = 1

The total distance is 10 miles

hope this helps

On which interval is the average rate of change for bicycle production the greatest? A) 1950 to 1960 B) 1960 to 1970 C) 1970 to

Alborosie

Answer:

D) 1980 to 2000

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the average rate of change in each interval to determine the greatest one.

Production per interval

1950-1960 = $(21-11) \ million$ = 10 million

1960-1970 = $(41-21)\ million$ = 20 million

1970-1980 = $(71-41)\ million$ = 30 million

1980-2000 = $(161-71)\ million= 90$ million

Rate of change (1950-1960)= $\frac{10}{11} \times 100= 90.90\%$

Rate of change (1960-1970) = $\frac{20}{21} \times 100= 95.23\%$

Rate of change (1970-1980)= $\frac{30}{41} \times 100= 73.17\%$

Rate of change (1980-2000)= $\frac{90}{71} \times 100= 126.76\%$

∴ rate of change between 1980 to 2000 is 126.78%

Please I NEED HELP HURRY The quotient of six and a number subtracted from 100 Question A 100 - 6/x Question B 6/x - 100 Question

jasenka [17]

For this case we have that the quotient of 6 and a number, can be expressed as:

$\frac {6} {x}$

Where the variable "x" represents the incognito number.

Now we have that expression is subtracted from 100. Now, we can write the following:

$100- \frac {6} {x}$

katie bought 4 sweaters that each cost the same amount and 1 skirt that costs 20$. The items she bought cost a total of 160$ bef

Alika [10]

Hello, in order to solve this you first need to take $20 subtracted from 160 that leaves you with 140 next because she bought 4 sweaters you need to divide your remaining cash spent by 4 to get a total of $35 a sweater.

I hope this is what you were looking for, have a great day!
