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:
9 cans of white paint
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this you can set up a ratio.
The ratio right now is 3 : 2, you have 3 cans of white paint for every 2 cans of blue paint. This question is asking how many white paint cans would be needed for 6 cans of blue paint. You can see the relationship between the number of blue paint cans and the new number of blue paint cans, maybe it's multiplying by 4 or 2 for example, and once we find that out we can do the same exact thing to the white cans.

We can see that to get from 2 to 6 you multiply by 3, so now we do that to the other side of the fraction as well, we multiply by 3. 3 multiplied by 3 is 9, so if we were to have 6 cans of blue paint we would need 9 cans of white paint to get that perfect shade of light blue. Anne would need 9 cans of white paint if she had 6 cans of blue paint to make her shade of blue.
A prime number<span> has only two factors: 1 and itself. A</span>composite number<span> has more than two factors. The</span>number<span> 1 is neither </span>prime<span> nor </span>composite<span>. The </span>prime numbers<span> between 2 and 31 are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29 and 31 since each of these </span>numbers<span> has only two factors, itself and 1.</span>
You can combine the -6 and -1 to -7. So the expression can be simplified as -3x-7
Answer:
9/2 +3/2x
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4 (6+2x)
Distribute
3/4*6 + 3/4*2x
18/4 +6/4x
