Time = distance / speed
Time = 3 2/5 miles / 4 miles per hour
Time = 17/5 / 4
Time = 17/5 x 1/4 = 17 x 1 / 5 x 4 = 17/20 hours
17/20 hours x 60 minutes per hour = 51 minutes.
The actual distance is 280 miles
The distance for round trip is 560 miles
It costs $ 72.8 for gas on a round trip
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Sean is looking at an atlas and the key at the bottom shows for every 1 and 1/2 inch on the map is approximately 80 miles of actual distance
Therefore,
Sean measured it to be about 5 and 1/4 inches on the map
Let "x" be the actual distance
Thus, we can say,
This forms a proportion and we can solve the sum by cross multiplying
Thus the actual distance is 280 miles
<em><u>How far will Sean drive round trip (there and back, no sightseeing)? </u></em>
Round trip = 280 + 280 = 560 miles
If Sean’s car gets 20 miles per gallon and gas averages about $2.60 a gallon, approximately how much will Sean spend on gas for a round trip?
cost = 28 x 2.60 = 72.8
Thus it costs $ 72.8 for gas on a round trip
The slope for JK is -3/7, the slope of LK is 2, the slope of ML is -3/7, the slope of MJ is 2. Quadrilateral JKLM is a parallelogram because <u>both pairs of opposite sides are parallel.</u>
