Suppose you traveled 84 in 1.5h moving at the same speed, how many mi would you cover in 3 1/4? & can someone answer number 45 also?

Hi there! I can help you!

43. To solve this, we can find the unit rate by dividing the amount traveled by the amount of time. 84/1.5 is 56. You are traveling at 56 mph. 3 1/4 is equivalent to 3.25. We can multiply that by 56 to find the amount traveled in 3 1/4 hours. 56 * 3.25 is 182. There. You would cover 182 miles in 3 1/4 hours.

44. To find the amount of heart beats in 50 seconds, we can set up a proportion like this: 130/12 = x/50. You set this up, because we’re looking for the amount of heartbeats, but we know the time frame. Cross multiply the values to get 6,500 = 12x. Now, divide each side by 12 to isolate the “x”. 6,500/12 is 541.6666 (541 2/3) or 542 when rounded to the nearest whole number. The heart beats about 542 times in 50 seconds.

45. Okay. Gas costs $1.85 per gallon and there is 18 miles per gallon. To find the cost per mile, we can divide the price for a gallon of gas by 18. 1.85/18 is 0.102777 and 7’s repeating or 0.10 when rounded to the nearest hundredth. The cost for gas per miles is approx. 10 cents.

Note: You didn’t ask for question #44 to be answered, but I solved it for you anyway to help you out.

Where the answer choices?
