For 45 km at 54 km/h,

we have 45 / 54 = 5/6.

Therefore, he takes 5/6 of an hour, which is 50 minutes.

The resulting average speed is 61.4117 km/h.

The average speed for his entire journey from York to Blackpool is about 61.41 km/h.

Here’s a breakdown of how we arrive at this:

$\text{ The average speed}=\frac{\text{Total distance covered}}{\text{Total time taken}}$

The distance he travelled from York to Leeds is 45 km,

and the speed during that section was 54 km/h.

Therefore, the time taken to travel from York to Leeds is 45/54 hours (since Time = Distance/Speed).

Next, the distance from Leeds to Blackpool is 42 km,

and the time for that leg of the journey is 35 minutes, which is 35/60 hours.

This leads to the total duration for his trip as

$=\frac{45}{54}+\frac{35}{60}=\frac{450+315}{540}=\frac{765}{540}=\frac{17}{12}$ hours.

The cumulative distance covered equals 45 + 42 = 87 km.

Thus, his average speed is calculated as:

$=\frac{87}{17/12}= \frac{12\times 87}{17}=\frac{1044}{17}=61.4117647\approx 61.41\text{ km per hour}$

The cost of soup, s, varies directly with the number of cans, c. When c is 4, the cost is $3. Which graph represents the cost of

AnnZ [12381]

It is understood that

A direct variation exists between two variables, x and y, if it can be represented as

$\frac{y}{x} =k\ or\ y=kx$

In this particular scenario

Define

x--------> the count of cans

y-------> the expense of a soup

therefore

when

$x=4\ cans\\y=\$3$

substituting

$\frac{y}{x} =k\\\\ \frac{3}{4} =k$

the resulting equation is

$y=\frac{3}{4}x$

tester [12383]

Answer: $434, 306.4

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information provided,

P= $163,000

R= 14% ; 14/100= 0.14

T=7 years

Using the formula,

A= Pr e^t

A= 163000*e^(0.14*7)

= 163000*e^(0.98)

= $434,306.4

Zina [12379]

Complete question:

Benjamin treats himself to breakfast at his go-to restaurant. He orders chocolate milk priced at \$3.25$3.25dollar sign, 3, point, 25. Next, he aims to purchase as many pancake stacks as possible while keeping his total at or below \$30$30dollar sign, 30 prior to tax. Pancakes are sold in stacks of 4 at \$5.50$5.50dollar sign, 5, point, 50. Let SSS denote the number of pancake stacks purchased by Benjamin. 1) What inequality represents this situation?

Answer:

Refer to the explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Information provided:

Chocolate milk costs = $3.25

Price of pancake stack = $5.50 (for 4 pancakes)

Pancake stacks bought = S

Maximum spending ≤ $30

Chocolate milk cost + (Cost per pancake stack × number of stacks) ≤ $30

3.25 + 5.50S ≤ 30

5.50S ≤ 30 - 3.25

5.50S ≤ 26.75
