Answer:

The speed of an object is the rate of distance traveled over time. Suzette ran for 1.5 hours, and she biked for 2 hours.

Given that: Speed is calculated as: Make Distance the subject Average running speed = 6 mph for x hours implies that: Average biking speed = 12.5 mph for y hours implies that: So, the total distance is: The total distance is 34 miles. So, we have: The total time is 3.5h. So, we have: Make x the subject Substitute in Collect like terms Divide both sides by 6.5 Recall that: Hence, Suzette ran for 1.5 hours, and she biked for 2 hours.'

x=3.5-y

x-3.5-2

x=1.5

4. Nine fruit juice bottles contain 4 1/2 litres of fruit juice between them.
brilliants [131]

Answer:

2\frac{1}{2} litres or 2.5 litres

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, 9 fruit juice bottles contain 4\frac{1}{2} litres of fruit juice. Therefore, to find how many litres of fruit juice would be contained in 5 fruit juice bottles, you multiply 5 by 4\frac{1}{2} litres and you divide the product by 9.

i.e. Let the quantity of the fruit juice for 5 bottles be x.

9 juice bottles ===> 4\frac{1}{2} litres

5 juice bottles ===> x

∴x = \frac{5 * 4\frac{1}{2} }{9} litres

x = \frac{5 * 4.5}{9} litres

x = \frac{22.5}{9} litres

x = 2.5 litres or 2\frac{1}{2} litres

Hope this helps!!!
