Mathematics

grigory [225]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

40 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

If the speed increased by 20%, now the speed is 120% of the original speed.

48 mph is 120%, so dividing by 6 will get 8 which is 20%.

If 8 is 20%, you can multiply it by 5 to get 40, which is 100%. This means 40 mph is the original speed.

Hope this helps!

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Fifty more than half the number of the oranges is one-hundred-and-twenty.

The sum of fifty and half the number of oranges is the same as one-hundred-twenty.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is 50 + one-half m = 120.

Assume the number of oranges=m

50+1/2m=120

1/2m=120-50

1/2m=70

m=70÷1/2

=140

All statement that applies includes:

1. Fifty more than half the number of the oranges is one-hundred-and-twenty.

50+1/2m=120

2. The sum of fifty and half the number of oranges is the same as one-hundred-twenty.

50+1/2m=120

Martha can use the two statements above to communicate the correct equation
