24/2=12
The unit rate is 12 packets per pound.
Hope this helps!
We let k be the proportionality constant for the relationship between number of hours, h and speed of the walker, s.
h = k/s
Substituting the known values,
12 = k/5
k = 60
For the second scenario,
h = k/s
Substituting the calculated value for k and the given value for speed,
h = (60)(3 miles/hour)
h = 20 hours
h = 20 hours
Therefore, it will take 20 hours to walk with a speed of 3 miles per hour.
Answer:
6.33... and 0.333...
Step-by-step explanation:
The quadratic formula is
.
It is important because while some quadratics are factorable and can be solved not all are. The formula will solve all quadratic equations and can also give both real and imaginary solutions. Using the formula will require less work than finding the factors if factorable. We will substitute a=9, b=-54 and c=-19.

We will now solve for the plus and the minus.
The plus,,,
and the minus...
