total distance travelled=72+69=141

time taken in hours for journey= (48/60)h + (69/60)= 1.95 h

average speed=141km/1.95h= 72.3km/h (3 sf)

think about the journey as two parts and the total journey.

first part:

first you need to find the speed of the first part but you need to convert 48mins to hours which is 0.8 hours.

speed = 72 ÷ 0.8 = 90km/h.

second part:

then you need to find the time it took to complete the second part of the journey.

time = distance/speed = 69 ÷ 60 = 1.15hours

total:

then you can find the total distance for both parts of the journey by doing 72km + 69km which is 141km.

the total time would be 0.8 hours + 1.15 hours which is 1.95 hours.

now you have the total distance and time so you can find the average speed for the whole journey.

speed = distance ÷ time

= 141 ÷ 1.95

= 72.307692307.... km/h

(you can round your answer to 72.3km/h)

Yumi wants to make 12 cups of party mix using candies and nuts her budget require the party mix to cost her $1 29 per cup. The c

kifflom [539]

Answer:

Acording to the question,

Cost per cup = $1.29

Total number of cups = 12

Total cost of cups = 12 x 1.2 = $15.48

Cost of candies = $2.49 per cup

Total number of candies = x

Cost of nuts = $0.69 per cup

Total number of nuts = y

Equations :

x + y = 12 (because total cups of nuts and candies will be equal to 12)

2.49x + 0.69y = 15.48 (Total cost of the 12 cups should be 15.48)

Step 1 : Find x in terms of y

x = 12 - y

Step 2 : substitute x in terms of y from step 1 in the second equation

2.49x + 0.69y = 15.48

2.49 ( 12 - y) + 0.69y = 15.48

29.88 - 2.49y + 0.69y = 15.48

-1.8y = -14.4

y = 14.4/1.8

y = 8

Step 3 : Find x

x + y = 12

x = 12 - y

x = 12- 8

x = 4

Thus,Yumi should use 4 cups of candies and 8 cups of nuts.

The price of a ceramic bead necklace (Y) is directly proportional to the number of beads (x) on the necklace. Using the graph, w

Annette [7]

Answer: C) (1,0.80) represents the unit rate. E) (25,20) represents the price of a necklace with 25 beads

Step-by-step explanation:

(1, 0.80) represents the unit rate.

(25, 20) represents the price of a necklace with 25 beads.

$\frac{y}{x}$ = unit rate → $\frac{4}{5}$ = 0.80; $\frac{12}{15}$ = 0.80; $\frac{16}{20}$ = 0.80

Point (1, r) → (1, 0.80) represents the unit rate.

25(0.80) = 20; thus, (25, 20) represents the price of 25 beads.

Hope this helps
