A truck traveled 205 miles in 3 1/2 hours. The distance is the product of the rate and the time. To the nearest tenth, what is the average speed of the delivery truck? Enter your answer in the box. miles per hour

58.6 miles / hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula is

d= rt  where d is the distance, r is the rate ( speed) and t is the time

205 miles = r * 3.5 hours

Divide each side by 3.5

205 miles/ 3.5 hours = r

58.57142857 miles / hour = r

To the nearest tenth

58.6 miles / hour

58.6

Step-by-step explanation:

So the truck traveled 205 miles in 3.5 hours.

As given, the distance is the product of the rate and the time. In other words:

Substitute 205 for d and 3.5 for t. Thus:

Divide both sides by 3.5 hours. Thus:

Divide 205 and 3.5:

i don't see nikolas work.

step-by-step explanation:

for the friend request.

when a figure, such as triangle (xyz) is reflected over the line y = x to create x'y'z' the x-coordinates and y-coordinates of the original image (pre-image) will be reversed for the image. (e.g., (x, y) > (y, x)) this means that the pre-image position of the x- and y-coordinates switch places which in turn provides a mirror like image of the original xyz.  

i notice that when i draw a line segment from x to x', that the points are parallel from each other -- they are exactly across from each other and do not intersect with any other points.  

yes, think i would see the same characteristic if you drew the line segment connecting y with the reflecting line and then y' with the reflecting line because of the essence of reflections. because it is a mirror image, each point was effected the same way which leads me to conclude that they same would apply to y and y'.
