The key is Esther travelled the same distance - x - in both her morning and evening commute.
45(time she took in the morning, or p) = x
30(time she took in the evening, or q) = x
Therefore 45(p) = 30(q), or divide both sides by 5 and get 9(p) = 6(q). I know you can divide it further, but these numbers are small enough and it's not worth the time.
Since the whole trip took an hour, (p + q) = 60min, and so, p = 60-q.
Therefore 9(60-q) = 6q or 540-9q = 6q. So 540 = 15q, which makes q = 36. If q = 36, then by (p+q)=60, p (the time she took in the morning) must equal 24.
45 miles per hour, her speed in the morning, times (24/60) hours, her time, makes 18 miles travelled in the morning. If you check, 30 miles per hour times (36/60) hours also makes 18 miles in the evening.

Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Product means to multiply 2 numbers and for this question its 9x4. The devided by 6 part is just divided from 6. so (9x4)/6
Hope this helped!
You might have made an error the first time you solved for x. I got x = -0.5.
When you have your log base 4, the way you cancel that out is by making 4 the base on both sides, so you get 4^(log4) to reduce to 1, and you're left with:
2x + 3 = 4^(1/2) ... Simplify
2x + 3 = 2
2x = -1
x = -1/2
If you plug that back in, everything checks out. Maybe double check your use of logarithm/exponent properties?
1 lb = 0.45 kg
52 lb= 0.45 * 52
52 lb= 23.4 kg
Answer:
The probability that a household has at least one of these appliances is 0.95
Step-by-step explanation:
Percentage of households having radios P(R) = 75% = 0.75
Percentage of households having electric irons P(I) = 65% = 0.65
Percentage of households having electric toasters P(T) = 55% = 0.55
Percentage of household having iron and radio P(I∩R) = 50% = 0.5
Percentage of household having radios and toasters P(R∩T) = 40% = 0.40
Percentage of household having iron and toasters P(I∩T) = 30% = 0.30
Percentage of household having all three P(I∩R∩T) = 20% = 0.20
Probability of households having at least one of the appliance can be calculated using the rule:
P(at least one of the three) = P(R) +P(I) + P(T) - P(I∩R) - P(R∩T) - P(I∩T) + P(I∩R∩T)
P(at least one of the three)=0.75 + 0.65 + 0.55 - 0.50 - 0.40 - 0.30 + 0.20 P(at least one of the three) = 0.95
The probability that a household has at least one of these appliances is 0.95
