A car took 6 minutes to travel between two stations that are 3 miles apart find the average speed of the car in mph
Vesna [10]

Answer: 30 mph is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

s = 3 miles

t = 6 minutes

so,

60 minute = 1 hour

1 minute = 1/60 hour

6 minutes = 1/60 * 6 = 0.1 hour

so

average speed = s/t

= 3/0.1 = 30 mph

ken wants to rent a car for a week and to pay to more than $130. how far can he drive if the car rental cost $94 a week plus $0.
cupoosta [38]
If Ken wants to pay more than 130, he needs to drive more than 90 miles. You subtract 94 from 130, which equals 36. 36 divided by .4 (for the price per mile) and it equals 90.

The bowling lanes charge an hourly fee for bowling and $2 to rent shoes for the day. Gerry rented shoes and bowled for 2 hours a
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

d) f(x) = 5x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to identify the variables and how they fit into the equation. in this case we know that the equation is f(x) = mx + b where f(x) is the total cost, m is the hourly cost, x is the number of hours bowled, and b is the price of the shoes.

Now, we need to solve for the hourly cost, so to do this we plug in all the known information to get 12 = m(2) + 2

To solve we need to isolate the variable by first subtracting 2 on both sides to get 10 = m(2) and then dividing both sides by 2 to get 5 = m.

Finally, since we now know that the hourly cost is $5 we can plug this information back into the equation to get f(x) = 5x + 2
