Answer:
Total distance mouse traveled in 3 hours =
of a mile
The mouse traveled the same distance in each hour. So in order to find the distance covered in 1 hour we have to divide the distance covered in 3 hours by 3. This will give us the distance that the mouse traveled in one hour.
So, the distance traveled in one hour will be =
of a mile
The error which Matt made was that he divided only the denominator of the expression by 3, this probably was a calculation error.
Correct conclusion will be: Mouse travel 1/24 of a mile each hour
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I believe 9 miles 15x3= 45 gallons what the car holds but he gets 18 mpg
18x3= 54 gallons 54-45=9
Clod would get 11, because the number they both thought of was 63
Answer:
62 Sunday papers were sold
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of Sunday papers sold. Then half that many, or x/2, is the number of Friday papers sold. The total revenue from the sales is the sum of products of quantity and price:
1.50 · x + 0.75 · (x/2) = 116.25
Multiplying by 2, this becomes ...
3.00x +0.75x = 232.50
3.75x = 232.50
Dividing by the coefficient of x gives ...
232.50/3.75 = x = 62
The number of Sunday newspapers sold is 62.
I'm guessing 90 hours because if you add their hours together it'll be 180 if they work together it'll be like half the time which is 90
