You are going to drive to another state for a vacation. One route will take 8 hours to drive 400 miles, and the other route will take 7 hours to drive 420 miles. You write two equations to try and figure out the average rate of speed you would travel on each route. How much higher will your average speed be on the faster route?(1 point)

You are training twice a week for a race. On Monday, you go 4 miles in 40 minutes. Then on Wednesday you go 2 miles in 16 minutes. Write an equation where y
is the number of miles and x
is the time in minutes for the day you ran the fastest for the week.(1 point)

To figure out the average rate of speed for each route, you can use the formula: average speed = total distance / total time.
For the first route, the distance is 400 miles and the time is 8 hours. The average speed can be calculated as:
average speed = 400 miles / 8 hours = 50 mph.
For the second route, the distance is 420 miles and the time is 7 hours. The average speed can be calculated as:
average speed = 420 miles / 7 hours = 60 mph.
Therefore, the average speed on the faster route (60 mph) is 10 mph higher than the average speed on the slower route (50 mph).
For the first route, the distance is 400 miles and the time is 8 hours. The average speed can be calculated as:
average speed = 400 miles / 8 hours = 50 mph.
For the second route, the distance is 420 miles and the time is 7 hours. The average speed can be calculated as:
average speed = 420 miles / 7 hours = 60 mph.
Therefore, the average speed on the faster route (60 mph) is 10 mph higher than the average speed on the slower route (50 mph).

To calculate how much more expensive it would be to get a bag of Blue Tarts instead of Red Snaps, you need to find the difference in price per ounce and multiply it by the number of ounces you plan to buy.
The price per ounce for Red Snaps is $0.25 and for Blue Tarts is $0.30.
The difference in price per ounce is $0.30 - $0.25 = $0.05.
As you plan to buy 8 ounces of candy, you multiply the price difference per ounce by 8:
$0.05 x 8 = $0.40.
Therefore, it would be $0.40 more expensive to get a bag of Blue Tarts instead of a bag of Red Snaps.
The price per ounce for Red Snaps is $0.25 and for Blue Tarts is $0.30.
The difference in price per ounce is $0.30 - $0.25 = $0.05.
As you plan to buy 8 ounces of candy, you multiply the price difference per ounce by 8:
$0.05 x 8 = $0.40.
Therefore, it would be $0.40 more expensive to get a bag of Blue Tarts instead of a bag of Red Snaps.

To write the equation where y is the number of miles and x is the time in minutes for the day you ran the fastest for the week, we need to compare the rate at which you covered the distance on Monday and Wednesday.
On Monday, you ran 4 miles in 40 minutes. The rate can be calculated as:
Rate = Distance / Time = 4 miles / 40 minutes = 0.1 miles per minute.
On Wednesday, you ran 2 miles in 16 minutes. The rate can be calculated as:
Rate = Distance / Time = 2 miles / 16 minutes = 0.125 miles per minute.
Since we are looking for the day when you ran the fastest, we can see that Wednesday had the higher rate of 0.125 miles per minute.
Therefore, the equation for the day you ran the fastest for the week is y = 0.125x, where y represents the number of miles and x represents the time in minutes.
On Monday, you ran 4 miles in 40 minutes. The rate can be calculated as:
Rate = Distance / Time = 4 miles / 40 minutes = 0.1 miles per minute.
On Wednesday, you ran 2 miles in 16 minutes. The rate can be calculated as:
Rate = Distance / Time = 2 miles / 16 minutes = 0.125 miles per minute.
Since we are looking for the day when you ran the fastest, we can see that Wednesday had the higher rate of 0.125 miles per minute.
Therefore, the equation for the day you ran the fastest for the week is y = 0.125x, where y represents the number of miles and x represents the time in minutes.
