My answer for 36 doesn't agree with any of your answer choices. Please check for typos.

37. Nope. Read the problem again.

36. instead of 52 miles per hour its 65 miles per hour

Yes, C is correct for 36.

For 37 do I multiply 85 and 6? I get 510. Is that all I do and would the answer be A? Or Do I have to do something with $40

37 is D

Yes. 37 is D.

To solve the first question, we need to calculate the time it will take Samantha and her family to reach Houston.

The distance traveled (D) is given as 325 miles, and the rate of travel (R) is 52 miles per hour.

We can use the formula: time (T) = distance (D) / rate (R).

T = 325 miles / 52 miles per hour.

Calculating this, we find that T ≈ 6.25 hours.

So, it will take Samantha and her family approximately 6.25 hours to reach Houston.

Now let's evaluate the statements:

A. Samantha and her family will have driven more than 200 miles within the first 2 hours.

To determine if this is reasonable, we need to calculate the distance they would have covered in 2 hours:
Distance = rate × time = 52 miles per hour × 2 hours = 104 miles.

Since 104 miles is less than 200 miles, statement A is not reasonable.

B. It will take Samantha and her family less than 4 hours to reach Houston.

Since it will take approximately 6.25 hours to reach Houston, statement B is not reasonable.

C. Samantha and her family will have driven 4/5 of the trip in 4 hours.

To determine if this is reasonable, we need to calculate the distance they would have covered in 4 hours:
Distance = rate × time = 52 miles per hour × 4 hours = 208 miles.

Since 208 miles is less than 4/5 of the total trip (4/5 × 325 = 260 miles), statement C is not reasonable.

D. It will take Samantha and her family 4.5 hours to reach Houston.

Since it will take approximately 6.25 hours to reach Houston, statement D is not reasonable.

Therefore, the most reasonable conclusion is: None of the given statements is reasonable.
