Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- Total distance = 10 miles
- Total time = 2 hours
- Distance walked = x
- Speed walked = 2 mph
- Distance cycled = 10 - x
- Speed cycled = 15 mph
<u>Using the given data we can have the equation below to the time:</u>
- x/2 + (10 - x)/15 = 2
- 30x/2 + 30(10 - x)/15 = 30(2)
- 15x + 20 - 2x = 60
- 13x = 60 - 20
- 13x = 40
- x = 40/13
- x = 3.08 miles <em>rounded to 2 decimal places</em>
Given the choices, the best fitting answer would be the first one. "2 loaves of bread and 4 batches of muffins". I figured this out by multiplying the amount of flour and sugar required for each loaf of bread and batch of muffins
Depends on MPH or Miles Per Hour.
Going 10 mph = 30 minutes
Going 50 mph = 10 minutes
Etc.
Answer:
18 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
We'll find out how much of the total container was lost when pouring out by subtracting 2/3 from 1/2.
2/3 = 4/6
1/2 = 3/6
4/6 - 3/6 = 1/6
1/6 of the total amount the container could hold was lost when 3 gallons was poured out. This means that 1/6 of the container equals to 3 gallons. We can then simply multiply 3 by 6 to find the number of gallons of liquid the container can hold.
3 * 6 = 18 gallons
Checking my answer:
18 * 2/3 = 6 * 2 = 12
12 - 3 = 9
1/2 of 18 = 9
This means that our answer is correct.
