A cyclist cycles a distance of 44 miles in a time of 4 hours.
What is her average speed?

11 miles an hour

Step-by-step explanation:

44 miles divided by 4 hours would equal 11 miles in one hour, meaning her average speed would be 11 miles an hour

The average speed is 11

Step-by-step explanation:

You would have 44 on top and 4 on the bottom(44/4)

then you would divide the 4 by four and the 44 by four to get 11 miles an hour.

step-by-step explanation:

there are 36 inches in a yard

25 : 36 = 0.69 yards (you can round to 0.70)

we have three similar triangles, because each has a right angle and shares an angle.   let's write the angles in order: opposite to short leg, long leg, hypotenuse.

cab similar to bad similar to cbd

or as ratios,

ca: ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

we also know

ac = ad + cd

(ad+cd): ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

(ad+cd)/cb=cb/cd

we have cb=6, ad=5 and seek x=cd.

we reject the negative root and conclude x=4

answer: 4
