<h3>Answer:  15 miles</h3>

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

Here's one approach:

(6 miles)/(24 minutes) = (x miles)/(60 minutes)

6/24 = x/60

6*60 = 24*x

360 = 24x

24x = 360

x = 360/24

x = 15

She travels 15 miles in 60 minutes (aka 1 hour). So we can say her speed is 15 mph.

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

Here's another approach:

If she travels 6 miles in 24 minutes, then her unit rate is distance/time = 6/24 = 1/4 = 0.25 miles per minute.

So if she travels for 60 minutes, then she'll cover a distance of 60*0.25 = 15 miles

Evaluate the expression described below if the number is 4. The difference between a number squared and the number. A. 0 B. 4 C.
svet-max [94.6K]
What the above statement is saying is:
If the number is 4, find the difference between the square of the number (the number is 4) and the number itself (the number is still 4).

The square of the number is:
The number^2
= 4^2
= 4 × 4
= 16

The difference between the square of the number and the number is:
The number^2 - The number
= 16 - 4
= 12

Hope this helps! :)

Write the equation of the line fully simplified slope-intercept form.
zmey [24]

Answer:5y=x-35

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line passes through the points (0,-7),(10,-5).

Let the slope of the line be m.

If a line passes through (x_{1},y_{1}) and (x_{2},y_{2}),then

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

So,m=\frac{-7-(-5)}{0-10}=\frac{1}{5}

Y-intercept of a line is defined as the y-coordinate of the point where the line touches y axis.

Let the y intercept be b

From the graph,b=-7

The equation of the line with slope m and y-intercept b is y=mx+b

So,y=\frac{1}{5}x-7

5y=x-35

Find the simple interest earned on $2600 invested for 3 years at 12% per annum​
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

$936

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest is money you can earn by initially investing some money (a.k.a the principal). In return, a percentage (a.k.a the interest) of the initial money invested is added to the principal, this is what makes your initial investment grow.

The equation for simple interest is:

I = P x r x t

P = Principal, $2600

r = interest rate, 12%

t = time involved, 3 years

Fill in the values:

2600 × 0.12 × 3 = $936.00
