The family is hiking in the mountains at a rate of 6 miles every 3 hours How long would it take the family to hike 7.5 miles?
(Hint: You will have a decimal or fraction in your final answer!)

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = 6 miles

Time = 3 hours

Speed = Distance ÷ Time

Speed = 6 ÷ 3

Speed = 2 miles/hour

....................................................

Speed = 2 miles/hour

Distance = 7.5 miles

Time = Distance ÷ Speed

Time = 7.5 ÷ 2

Time = 3.75 hours

3.75 hours = 3 hours & 45 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Time taken to travel 6 miles = 3 hours

Time taken to travel 1 mile = 3 ÷ 6 = = 30 minutes

Time taken to travel 7.5 miles = 30 * 7.5 = 225 minutes = 3.45 hours

add a pic of the graph, then ill edit this "answer" and solve it for you : 3

step-by-step explanation:

graph b

step-by-step explanation:

one solution- graph a (clear intercepting point.)

no solution- graph b (they're parallel, there will never be a point of interception.)

infinite solutions- graph c (all points intercept.)
