Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height.

Area of the shown triangle = 1/2 x 9 x 6 = 27 square inches.

Area of blue square = 3 x 3 = 9 square inches.

The probability of being in the blue are of the triangle = 9/27 which reduces to 1/3

At noon Joyce drove to the lake at 30 miles per hour. but she made the long walk back home at 4 miles per hour. How long did she

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

60 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

let d = distance to the lake

Using: time = distance ÷ speed

Create expressions for the time it takes for each journey:

Drive: $t_1=\dfrac{d}{30}$

Walk: $t_2=\dfrac{d}{4}$

If total time = 17 hours

$\implies t_1+t_2=17$

$\implies \dfrac{d}{30}+\dfrac{d}{4}=17$

$\implies \dfrac{17d}{60}=17$

$\implies 17d=1020$

$\implies d=\dfrac{1020}{17}$

$\implies d=60$

Therefore she walked 60 miles

Average speed is given by [Total Distance] ÷ [Total Time]

Average speed = $\frac{95+97}{1+1} = \frac{192}{2}=96$ km/hour
