it takes an engineer three hours to drive to his brother's house at an average speed of 50miles per hour. If he takes the same route home, but his average speed is 60 miles per hour, what is the time, in hours that it takes him to drive home?

2.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

→ Write the formula

Speed = Distance ÷ Time

→ Find the distance for 3 hours at a speed of 50 mph

Distance = Speed × Time ∴ 3 × 150 = 150

→ Now work out the time

150 ÷ 60 = 2.5 hours

hey there!

if she's saving for six months, let's divide the total number we need for the trip by six, dividing it into the amount that needs to be saved for each month.

500 ÷ 6 =

she needs to save at least this amount each month, so we should use this symbol: ≥

let x be the amount she saves each month.

your final answer is x ≥

hope this !
