2. an object is traveling at a steady speed of ( 8\frac{3}{4} ) miles per hour. how long will it take the object to travel ( 5\frac{1}{5} ) miles?
3. brianna works as a... her yearly bonus is... for each customer... the year. what is... complaints about...
4. analyze and persevere there are ten birdbaths in a park. on the first day of spring, the birdbaths are filled. several weeks later, the overall change in the water level is found. the results are shown in the table. changes in water level (inches): 2.4, 1.4, -2.3, 2.9, 2.3, -1.2, -1.4, -1.8, 2.5, 0.9. what is the range of the data?

(table: changes in water level (inches) with values 2.4, 1.4, -2.3, 2.9, 2.3, -1.2, -1.4, -1.8, 2.5, 0.9)

Explanation:

Problem 13:

Step 1: Identify max and min

Data: \(2.4, 1.4, -2.3, 2.9, 2.3, -1.2, -1.4, -1.8, 2.5, 0.9\)
Max = \(2.9\), Min = \(-2.3\)

Step 2: Calculate range

Range = Max - Min = \(2.9 - (-2.3) = 5.2\)

Step 1: Convert to improper fractions

Speed: \(8\frac{3}{4} = \frac{35}{4}\) mph, Distance: \(5\frac{1}{5} = \frac{26}{5}\) miles

Step 2: Time = Distance / Speed

Time = \(\frac{26}{5} \div \frac{35}{4} = \frac{26}{5} \times \frac{4}{35} = \frac{104}{175} \approx 0.594\) hours (or convert to minutes if needed)

Answer:

\(5.2\) inches

Problem 11: (Assuming speed \(8\frac{3}{4}\) mph, distance \(5\frac{1}{5}\) miles)
