Jean traveled the first 100 miles in 5 hours. Then she doubled her speed for the last part
of the trip. If the total trip was 300 miles, how many hours did it take Jean to travel the
last part?

Time taken to travel the last part by Jean is 5 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

⇒ Speed = Distance/Time = 100/5 = 20 miles/hour

⇒ Speed for second part = 2 × 20 = 40 miles/hour

⇒ Time = Distance/Speed = 200/40 = 5 hours

d. $180

step-by-step explanation:

if the dimensions of the room is 9ft by 12 ft, we have the area of the floor as,

so the area of the floor is 108 square feet, converting that into square yards we get,

the cost of carpet is $15 per square yard, therefore the cost of carpet for 12 square yards is,

hence, the cost of carpet is $180.

assuming the dimensions of the room be,

15 ft by 12 ft

so, the area of the floor of that room is,

we can convert 180 square feet into square yards, we know that,

1 sq ft = 0.111 sq yard

so, 180 square feet is,

so the area of floor is 20 square yards.

now, the cost of carpet is 15 dollars per square yard, therefore the cost of carpet for 20 square yards is,

so, it will cost $300.
