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

OK so I don't want answers, I just want someone to walk me through this and teach me how to do it.

Answer:

352cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape is a cuboid and it has 6 faces, and the opposite faces are equal, so I calculate 3 different faces and multiplied it by 2 to give me the total surface area. Therefore, total surface area = the addition of all the surface areas in the shape. And to get each surface area, you have find the area of each of the 6 faces, and add them together, to give you the total surface area.

If a van traveled 175 miles in 5 hours, how far could the van travel in 8 hours?
Fittoniya [83]
280 because if you divide 175 by 5 you get 35 which is the amount of miles the van travels in 1 hour and then you multiple 35 by 8 and you have your answer 280

10.A water tank has strps inside it. A monkeyis sitting on topmost floor(i.e.,the first step).The water level is at ninth step.
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

7 steps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the monkey is sitting on the first step already you can subtract 9 by 1 to find the amount of steps left.

9-1 = 8 steps left

The monkey jumps 3 steps down

8-3= 5 steps

Then jumps 2 steps up

5 + 2 = 7 steps

The monkey has 7 more steps until he reaches the water level.

You need to divide the miles by the hours to et the Average speed.
M divided by h = s
Because to get the mph (miles per hour) you multiply the average speed to the hours.
