Anton's family drove 216 mi to the lake averaging 48 mi/h. On the return trip home they averaged 54 mi/h. What was the total time that Anton's family spent driving to and from the lake?
O 8. 0 h
O 8. 5 h
O 9. 0 h
O 9. 5 h
Lets do some calculating!
We first find the time it took to get to the lake:
216/48=
4.5 hours
Now find the time it took to get back to home sweet home!
216/54=
4 hours
Add them up!
4.5+4=
<h2><u><em>9.5 hours.</em></u></h2>
Therefore, its option
O 8. 0 h (not this one)
O 8. 5 h (not this one)
O 9. 0 h (not this one)
<h2><u><em>------ 9. 5 h (yes its this one)</em></u></h2>
Statement 3 is QR=RT. This can be validified by the reason of Transitive Property of Equality. This property is applied when the situation is if a=c and b=c, then a=b. The same is true for QR=59 and RT=59, then QR=RT.
