Answer:

12.5 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a fraction equal to

25 miles ÷ 2 hours

We want a unit rate where

1 is in the denominator,

so we divide top and bottom by 2

<u>25 miles </u>÷ 2

2 hours ÷ 2

<u>12.5 miles</u>

1 hour

= 12.5 miles per hour

Answer:

$\large\boxed{7.\ B.\ 8s^2+16s+1}\\\\\boxed{8.\ D.\ -15t^9u^{11}}\\\\\boxed{11.\ C.\ 3,\ -2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$7.\\(3s^2+7s+2)+(5s^2+9s-1)=3s^2+7s+2+5s^2+9s-1\\\\\text{combine like terms}\\\\=(3s^2+5s^2)+(7s+9s)+(2-1)\\\\=8s^2+16s+1$

$8.\\(-3t^2u^3)(5t^7u^8)=(-3\cdot5)(t^2t^7)(u^3u^8)\qquad\text{use}\ a^na^m=a^{n+m}\\\\=-15t^{2+7}u^{3+8}=-15t^9u^{11}$

$11.\\n-the\ number\\\\n^2=n+6\qquad\text{subtract}\ n\ \text{and}\ 6\ \text{from both sides}\\\\n^2-n-6=0\\\\n^2+2n-3n-6=0\\\\n(n+2)-3(n+2)=0\\\\(n+2)(n-3)=0\iff n+2=0\ \vee\ n-3=0\\\\n+2=0\qquad\text{subtract 2 from both sides}\\n=-2\\\\n-3=0\qquad\text{add 3 to both sides}\\n=3$
