um idk help

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk is my answer to a log

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

like idk fr im lost

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

wht?

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

im never do these comes im sooo confused

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

wow i make no sense

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a lot is what i mean first to solve \[d=rt\] for \(t\) you divide by \(r\) and get \[\huge t=\frac{d}{r}\] as is time is distance divided by rate

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

i meant** i never do these because there too hard and confusing

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

mhm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

like if you drive 100 miles at 50 mph it takes you \(\frac{100}{50}=2\) hours to get there

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

mk

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

mk so how would i put it into hours or mins?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i don't know what the units are given in does it say?

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

i think it states to round it to the nearest thousands for minutes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah it is hours, so for column E take column C and divide by column D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know how to do that on the spread sheet but for some reason i cannot adjust yours

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

oh ya your correct, thank you :)

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

Do you see the graph thing on the bottom?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah you can put in the following in the cell E18 =c18/d18 then drag it down

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

hmm wait idk what to do in the last column, where it asks mins

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

hm idk if you see the same thing i see

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in cell F18 put this =e18*60 then drag that one down

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

maybe different excels

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i can send you what i did, so you can see it i don't use excel because i don't do windows, but i did copy and paste and put in the formulas

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

Okie

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it did not do the graph though how good are you with excel?

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

Not great..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you know what i mean by "E18"?

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

No

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you see on the top of the sheet it has letters?

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

yessss

OpenStudy (anonymous):

column E, row 18

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is the first entry you have to fill

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

ya

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you want do divide the time by the rate the time is in column C, the rate in column D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

go to cell E18 and type in this =c18/e18 then hit enter don't forget the equal sign

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

mk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok that was a mistake, sorry type in c18/d18

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that will divide the entry in c18 by the entry in d18

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you should see .302 in e18 when you do that let me know if you get that

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

0.302 got it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok now do you know how to drag that down to the other cells?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cause you don't need to type that in each cell

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

Arnt you supposed to do t=d/r, for every one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah but the spreadsheet will do it for you

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

oh okie

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1450496711986:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in cell E18 mouse over until you see an + sort of on the bottom right corner

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then pull it down to the other cells below it it will use the same formula for those other cells

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

including the mins?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no we will take care of those easily next, lets get this done first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just find the + in the corner, and pull your mouse down to the cells below it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

straight down along the side to get the same formula for each cell l

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

while it says .302?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, in that cell, E18

OpenStudy (anonymous):

go to the bottom right with your cursor in that sell and a big plus will appear when you hit that corner drag it down

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

yes! i did it

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

finally

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok good

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you got like .275, ..241 and so on right?

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok now for the minutes that is in column F

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

yush

OpenStudy (anonymous):

go to cell F18 and type in =e18*60

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ooops that is wrong sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you go 60 mph you go 1 mile per minute, you have to divide by 60, not multiply

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

yeah thats what i was thinking

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so lets try again go to F18 and type in =e18/60

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then as before drag that down

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

and bring it down?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

okie

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just like the last one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now on my spread sheet i do not get a graph, but perhaps you do

OpenStudy (rootbeer003):

ya, its filled out tho

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok my work here is done!
