Tamara rode her bicycle 8 miles in 0.5 hours. What was the average rate that
she rode her bicycle in miles per hour?

pls give me the step by step

16 miles per hour (mph)

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so the beginning of the question states that Tamara rode her bicycle 8 miles in 0.5 hours.

0.5 is equivalent to 1/2 (one-half).

This means that she rode 8 miles in just half of an hour (30 minutes).

If she continues at this rate, she will have rode another 8 miles in the next 30 minutes.

And, 8 + 8 = 16.

Therefore, the average rate that she rode her bicycle is 16 miles per hour (mph).

Let me know if you have any questions.

$53.50

step-by-step explanation:

you have to subtract the amount of money chuck earned ($72.50) by the cost of the gas for the mower ($11.25) and the new string for the trimmer he bought ($7.75).

72.50-11.25=61.25

and then subtract $61.25 by the second thing he bought (the new string for the trimmer)

61.25-7.75=53.5

so in total it's $53.50 (53 dollars and 50 cents)
