Answer:

<h3>246.6 meters per hour</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Speed uphill 100meters per hour

Speed on flat ground 120 meters per hour

Speed uphill  150 meters per hour.

Required

The average speed.

Step two:

To get the average speed, let us add all the individual speeds and divide by 3(three different speeds), then multiply the result by 2(the return trip)

Average speed= (100+120+150)*2/3

Average speed= 740/3

Average speed=  246.6 meters per hour

Given: ΔABC, AC = BC, AB = 3 CD ⊥ AB, CD = √3 Find: AC
valina [46]

Answer:

\boxed{AC = 2.3}

Step-by-step explanation:

AD = BD  (CD bisects AB means that it divides the line into two equal parts)

So,

AD = BD = AB/2

So,

AD = 3/2

AD = 1.5

<u><em>Now, Finding AC using Pythagorean Theorem:</em></u>

c^2 = a^2+b^2

Where c is hypotenuse (AC), a is base (AD) and b is perpendicular (CD)

AC^2= (1.5)^2+(\sqrt{3} )^2

AC^2 = 2.25 + 3

AC^2 = 5.25

Taking sqrt on both sides

AC = 2.3

Of 360 consumers polled some purchased ice cream some purchase frozen yogurt and some purchased both if 260 people polled purcha
Xelga [282]

Total customers are = 360

Number of polled people who purchased ice cream = 260

Number of polled people who purchased both ice cream and yogurt = 250

Hence, people who purchased only ice cream are=260-250=10

And 360-10=350 are people who purchased yogurt.

So, people who purchased yogurt only = 360-(250+10)=100

713.49 written in a standard form
Vikki [24]

Answer: one hundred  seven thirteen and forty-nine hundreds

Step-by-step explanation: Standard form is a way of writing down very large or very small numbers easily. 103 = 1000, so 4 × 103 = 4000 . So 4000 can be written as 4 × 10³ . This idea can be used to write even larger numbers down easily in standard form.

A teacher handed out m notebooks which came in packs with c notebooks in each pack. How many packs were there?
Roman55 [17]
Let’s throw some numbers in here just so it becomes clear what we are asked for.

Let’s say the teacher hands out 12 notebooks that came in packs with 4 notebooks in each pack. If you are asked for the number of packs here you would see that it’s 3. That is 3 packs of 4 give 12.

So you divide the number of notebooks handed out (m) by the number of notebooks per pack (c) to get the number of packs.

The number of packs is m/c

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

y = 3/8x

or

3/8 cups of sugar for every 1/2 batch of muffins

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are only making 1/2 of the full batch of muffins, we only need to use 1/2 the cups of sugar:

\frac{3}{4} (\frac{1}{2} )= \frac{3}{8} cups of sugar.
