Answer:

The family's average rate of travel for the day was 59.0 MPH.

Step-by-step explanation:

From 10:15AM to 4:45PM, they travelled a distance of 383.5 miles and a total of 6 hours and 30 minutes.

There are 60 minutes in an hour. 30 minutes translates into 1/2 an hour or .5

So, 6.5 hours and a total distance of 383.5 miles.

Velocity (MPH) = Distance (in miles) / Time (in hours)

MPH means Miles Per Hour

Variables:

Velocity (MPH) = x

Distance (in miles) = 383.5

Time (in hours) = 6.5

Plug in the variables into the formula

x = 383.5 / 6.5

Divide

x = 59.0 MPH

Answer:

59 miles/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, lets make the time in 24 hours format:

10:15 am = 10 hours and 15 minutes

4:45 pm = 16 hours and 45 minutes

so time taken = ( 16 hours and 45 minutes ) - ( 10 hours and 15 minutes )

                       = 6 hours 30 minutes

                       = [6 + (30/60)] hours

                       = 6.5 hours taken for the journey to complete

Average rate of travel = Total distance / time taken

                                     = 383.5 / 6.5

                                     = 59 miles/hr

For which of the following compound inequalities is there no solution? ​
Bess [88]

Answer:

(a)6m \le - 36 and m + 24 > 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

Which of a to d has no solution

(a)6m \le - 36 and m + 24 > 20

We have: m + 24 > 20

Sole for m

m >20 - 24

m >-4

6m \le - 36

Divide by 6

m \le -6

So, we have:

m \le -6 and m >-4

m \le -6 implies that: m = -6,-7,-8,-9.....

m >-4 implies that m = -3,-2,-1,0.....

<em>Hence, there is no solution</em>

When Judy worked 4 hours and Ben worked 1 hour, their combined pay was $75. When Judy worked 2 hours and Ben worked 6 hours, the
arsen [322]

Answer:

$15

Step-by-step explanation:

let the hourly rate of pay for Ben  = B

let the hourly rate of pay for Judy  = J

Judy worked 4 hours and Ben worked 1 hour, their combined pay was $75;

              4J + B = 75 ----- i

Judy worked 2 hours and Ben worked 6 hours, their combined pay was $120

               2J + 6B  = 120 --- ii

Now, we should solve the expression;

   Multiply equation ii by 2 and equation i by 1;

 

            4J + B = 75 ----- i    x 1  ;    4J + B  = 75          -- iii

            2J + 6B  = 120 --- ii  x 2 ;   4J + 12B  = 240    ---iv

Now,

 equation iv - iii;

                   11B  = 165

                      B  = $15

So, solving for J;

          4J + B = 75

         4J + 15  = 75

          4J  = 75 - 15  = 60

          J  = $15

5/4 to 3/8 as a percent change
Digiron [165]
Well, what's the diffrence from 5/4 to 3/8?

\bf \cfrac{5}{4}-\cfrac{3}{8}\qquad \stackrel{\textit{LCD is 8 clearly}}{\implies }\qquad \cfrac{10-3}{8}\implies \cfrac{7}{8}

so, if we take 5/4 to be the 100%, what is 7/8 off of it in percentage anyway?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}&#10;amount&\%\\&#10;\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\&#10;\frac{5}{4}&100\\\\&#10;\frac{7}{8}&x&#10;\end{array}\implies \cfrac{\quad \frac{5}{4}\quad }{\frac{7}{8}}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies \cfrac{5}{4}\cdot \cfrac{8}{7}=\cfrac{100}{x}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{40}{28}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies x=\cfrac{28\cdot 100}{40}

Bruno uses a piece of wrapping paper with dimensions 1 and one-fourth feet by 3 feet to wrap a gift. What is the total area of t
8_murik_8 [283]

The area of the paper used to wrap the gift is 3 3/4 square feet

<h3>How to determine the total area?</h3>

The dimension is given as:

1 1/4 by 3

The area is the product of the dimensions.

So, we have

Area = 1 1/4 * 3

Express as an improper fraction

Area = 5/4 * 3

Evaluate

Area = 15/4

Rewrite as:

Area = 3 3/4

Hence, the area of the paper used to wrap the gift is 3 3/4 square feet
