Answer:
a) average rate = (total distance)/(total time)
b) Rave = 2·R1·R2/(R1 +R2)
c) cheetah's average rate ≈ 50.91 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Let AB represent the distance from A to B. Let t1 and t2 represent the travel times (in hours) on leg1 and leg2 of the trip, respectively. Then the distances traveled are...
First leg distance: AB = 70·t1 ⇒ t1 = AB/70
Second leg distance: AB = 40·t2 ⇒ t2 = AB/40
The average rate is the ratio of total distance to total time:
average rate = (AB +AB)/(t1 +t2)
average rate = 2AB/(AB/70 +AB/40) = 2/(1/70 +1/40) = 2(40)(70)/(70+40)
average rate = 560/11 = 50 10/11 . . . mph

No equations are given, so we cannot compare what we wrote with the given equations. In each step of the solution, we have used the rules of algebra and equality.
b) For two rates over the same distance (as above), the average is their harmonic mean:
average rate = 2r1·r2/(r1+r2)
__
c) The cheetah's average rate was 50 10/11 mph ≈ 50.91 mph.

Answer:
she have to pay rs.168 at the end of two years
It takes 15 minutes for Ms. Peter to drive from park to her home
Given :
from her home to the park at an average speed of 30 miles per hour and
returned home along the same route at an average speed of 40 miles per hour
it takes 20 minutes to travel
Convert 20 minutes in to hour (divide by 60)
20 minutes = 1/3 hour
We know that distance = speed x time
From home to park, distance =
So , distance between home and park is 10 miles
Now we calculate the time taken to return from park to home
Time taken is 1/4 hours. Convert it into minutes by multiplying by 60
So it takes 15 minutes for Ms. Peter to drive from park to her home
