Answer:
47. 1 5/8
48. 1 1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>47. </em>
<em>First, convert the denominators to be the same.</em>
8 1/2 minutes, Ruby's mile time, can be converted to 8 4/8.
<em>Then subtract.</em>
8 4/8 - 6 7/8 = 1 5/8
<em>48.</em>
<em>Make sure the denominators are the same. Both denominators can be multiplied by 3 or 4 to become 12.</em>
1 1/4 can be multiplied by 3 to get 1 3/12. And 1 1/3 can be multiplied by 4 to get 2 4/12.
<em>Then subtract.</em>
2 4/12 - 1 1/3 = 1 1/12
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
its 3 because the line goes through 3 on x axis of the graph
Let the speed for the first 12 mi be x mi/h, the speed for 18 mi was (x+4) mi/h
thus given that
time=distance/speed
the average time will be:
3=(12+18)/(x+x+4)
3=30/(2x+4)
solving for x we get
3(2x+4)=30
6x+6=30
6x=24
x=4 mi/hr
Answer: 12 mi/hr
