Answer:

Her average speed from Ashdown to Carton is approximately 48.4 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

The time and speed of the motion of Priti are as follows;

The time it takes Priti to drive from Ashdown to Bridgeton, t₁ = 4 hours

The average speed she drove from Ashdown to Bridgeton = 50 mph

The distance she drove from Bridgeton to Carton, d₂ = 30 miles

Her average speed from Bridgeton to Carton = 40 mph

The distance from Ashdown to Bridgeton, d₁ = 50 mph × 4 hours = 200 miles

The time it takes Priti to drive from Bridgeton to Carton, t₂ = 30 miles/(40 mph) = 0.75 hour

Average velocity, v_{ave} = (Total distance traveled, Δd)/(Total time, Δt)

Δd = d₁ + d₂, Δt = t₁ + t₂

Δd = 200 miles + 30 miles = 230 miles

Δt = 4 hours + 0.75 hour = 4.75 hours

∴ The average velocity, v_{ave} = (230 miles)/(4.75 hours)

∴ v_{ave} = (920/19) mph

Her average speed from Ashdown to Carton, rouded to 1 d,p, v_{ave} ≈ 48.4 mph

the amount of money in an account with continuously compounded interest. calculated to the nearest tenth of a year how long it t
pentagon [3]
You will need this formula:
Years = ln (Total / Principal) / rate
(where "ln" means natural logarithm)
and we'll use $100 and $200 for beginning and ending amount
Years = ln (200 / 100) / rate
Years = 0.69314718056 / .052
Years = <span> <span> <span> 13.3297534723 </span> </span> </span>
Rounding to the nearest tenth of a year:
Years = <span> <span> <span> 13.3
