Cooper drove his car for 2 hours at a constant speed of 60 miles per hour and then for another 30 minutes at a constant speed of 40 miles per hour. How far did Cooper drive? 100 miles
170 miles
180 miles
160 miles

None of the answer choices show the correct answer.

The actual answer is 140 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Cooper drove 60 miles per hour for 2 hours, that means that he drove 120 miles for the first 2 hours.

60 * 2 = 120

Cooper then drove for another 30 minutes at a speed of 40 miles per hour.

30 minutes is half of and hour so we need to divide the 40 miles by 2.

40 / 2 = 20

Now we just have to add them together.

120 + 20 = 140

So the answer is 140 miles.

Hope this helps! :)

step-by-step explanation:

the formula for the constant of variation is

y= kx

divide each side by x

y/x =kx/x

y/x =k

we know a and y

1.   y/x = k

4/1 =4

check the other values to make sure they are the same

8/2 = 4   12/3 =4   and 16/4 =4  

the constant of variation is 4

2.   y/x = k

3/1 =3

check the other values to make sure they are the same

6/2 = 3   9/3 =3   and 12/4 =3  

the constant of variation is 3
