Mission Control sends a signal to a Mars robot to travel to a mysterious rock 52.8 meters away. A return signal 59.0 minutes lat

er tells scientists that the robot is at the rock. It took the signal 9.5 minutes to get from Earth to Mars, and the same time to get back. What was the robot’s average speed in meters per minute?

The response time includes the round-trip signal time plus the robot's travel time.
  59 min = 2*(9.5 min) +travel time
  59 min -2*(9.5 min) = travel time = 40 min

The speed is distance / travel time
  speed = (52.8 m)/(40 min) = 1.32 m/min

The robot's average speed was 1.32 meters per minute.

Joshua started cycling at 5:15 pm By 8:09 pm, he has covered a distance of 7250 mWhat was Joshua's average speed during that tim
vivado [14]

The average speed of Joshua during that time is 2500 m/h.

Explanation:

It is given that Joshua started cycling at 5:15 pm. By 8:09 pm he has covered a distance of 7250 m.

The total time taken by Joshua from 5:15 pm to 8:09 pm is

2 { h } 54 \text { min }=2 \mathrm{h}+\frac{54}{60} {h}

Dividing we get,

2 { h } 54 \text { min }=2 \mathrm{h}+0.9 {h}

Adding, we have,

2 { h } 54 \text { min }=2.9 {h}

Thus, the total time taken by Joshua is 2.9 {h}

To determine the average speed we use the formula,

speed=\frac{distance}{time}

where distance=7250 and time=2.9

Hence, substituting the values we have,

speed=\frac{7250}{2.9}

Dividing, we get,

speed=2500

Thus, the average speed of Joshua during that time is 2500 m/h.

Jake made a total of 7 copies at a copy shop, with some being black-and-white copies and some being color copies. Black-and-whit
Arada [10]
Jake spent a total of 70 cents.
b = black-and-white = 8 cents
c = color = 15 cents

70 = 8b + 15c

he made a total of 7 copies
b + c = 7

system of equation:
70 = 8b + 15c
b + c = 7

--------------------------

b + c = 7
b + c (-c) = 7 (-c)
b = 7 - c

plug in 7 - c for b

70 = 8(7 - c) + 15c
Distribute the 8 to both 7 and - c (distributive property)

70 = 56 - 8c + 15c
Simplify like terms

70 = 56 - 8c + 15c
70 = 56 + 7c

Isolate the c, do the opposite of PEMDAS: Subtract 56 from both sides

70 (-56) = 56 (-56) + 7c
14 = 7c

divide 7 from both sides to isolate the c

14 = 7c
14/7 = 7c/7
 c = 14/7
 c = 2

c = 2
---------------

Now that you know what c equals (c = 2), plug in 2 for c in one of the equations.
b + c = 7
c = 2
<em>b + (2) = 7
</em><em />Find b by isolating it. subtract 2 from both sides
b + 2 = 7
b + 2 (-2) = 7 (-2)
b = 7 - 2
b = 5

Jake made 5 black-and-white copies, and 2 color copies

hope this helps
