Answer:

Sammy's dad traveled 450 miles in 9 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

mph = $\frac{Miles}{Hours}$

Miles = 150

Hours = 3

Plug into the formula of distance/time

$\frac{150}{3} = 50mph$

Sammy's dad is driving at 50mph

In three hours you can use this formula: $50mph=\frac{miles}{9}$

Multiply both sides by 9: $50mph * 9 =\frac{miles}{9} *9$

Solve:

$50mph * 9 =miles$

$450 =miles$

Sammy's dad traveled 450 miles in 9 hours.

Hope this helped! :)

Answer:

distance in 3 hours = 150 miles

distance in 1 hour = 150/3 = 50 miles

distance in 9 hours = 50 × 9 = 450 miles

There are 6 gray keys for every 11 black keys. Also, the number of black keys is 2 less than twice the number of gray keys. Use

emmainna [20.7K]

$\text{ Answer: There are }12\text{ gray keys.}\\\\\text{ there are }22\text{ black keys.}$

Explanation:

Since we have given that

There are 6 gray keys for every 11 black keys .

So, the ratio will be 6:11

Let the number of gray keys be 6x

Let the number of black keys be 11x

Now, according to question,

$11x=2\times 2x-2\\\\11x=12x-2\\\\11x-12x=-2\\\\-x=-2\\\\x=2$

so,

$\text{ there are }6x=6\times 2=12\text{ gray keys.}\\\\\text{ there are }11x=11\times 2=22\text{ black keys.}$

Suppose Miss Roxanne Davenport is 25 years old right now and puts away $1,800 per quarter in an account that returns 6% interest

Lena [83]

We have been given that miss Roxanne is 25 years old and she puts 1800 dollars per quarter that returns 6% interest.

(a) We need to figure out how much will be in the account when she turns 65 years old. When she turns 65 years old, the number of years during which she made deposits would be 40. Since she made quarterly deposits. She made a total of 160 deposits. We can now figure out the final amount in the account using future value of annuity formula.

$A=P\frac{(1+r)^{n}-1}{r}$

We have the values P=1800, r=6/4% = 1.5% = 0.015 and n=160.

Therefore, the amount in the account would be:

$A=1800\frac{(1+0.015)^{160}-1}{0.015}=1179415.39$

Therefore, miss Roxanne will be 1179415.39 dollars in her account when she turns 65 years old.

(b) In this part we need to figure out the total amount she deposited.

The total amount she deposited would be $1800*160=\$288000$ .

Interest earned = $1179415.39-288000=\$891415.39$

A student builds a model of a high-rise for a diorama for an architecture class. The model is a perfect cube and the total volum

anzhelika [568]

Volume = length x width x height

Thus, you need to find the cubic root of 500....the number that when multiplied by itself three times = 500,

There are different ways to write this. $\sqrt[3]{500}$
= $\sqrt[3]{125 * 4}$
= 5 $\sqrt[3]{4}$

You can also show it as a decimal using a calculator = 7.94
