Answer:
2.52
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 15.5 = 28.1
subtract 15.5 from both sides
5x = 12.6
divide both sides by 5
x = 2.52
All direct proportional graphs go through the origin (0,0). So this is where one point could go. The second point is found by going up 5 units and then to the right 3 units to get to (3,5)
<h3>Draw a straight line through (0,0) and (3,5) to graph</h3>
The equation of this line is y = (5/3)x
Let's say her speed was x miles/hour during the first 3 miles runThen, time = distance/speedt1 = 3/x eq1 In the next 4 miles run, her speed = x-1 miles/hourTime taken:t2 = 4/(x-1) eq2 Now, total time:t1 + t2 = 1 3/5 hourssubstitute t1 and t2 from eqs. 1 and 2 3/x + 4/(x-1) = 1 3/5=> 3/x + 4/(x-1) = 8/5
=> 3(x-1) + 4x = 8x(x-1)/5=> 35x - 15 = 8x2 - 8x=> 8x2 - 43x + 15 = 0=> (8x-3)*(x-5) = 0=> x = 3/8 or 5 miles/hourx can not be 3/8 miles/hour because in that case, the speed during 4 miles run would be 3/8-1 = negative numberi.e. speed during 3 miles segment = 5 miles/hourand speed during 4 miles segment = 5-1 = 4 miles/hour
Answer:
If they mean written as a fraction, you have three total outcomes. As a fraction you can say 1/3 to say you have a one in three chance of landing on a specific one.
