If you're twice a fast then... we'll divide 6750 by 3, that equals 2250.
<span>Equation.. y=your friend and you would be 2y cuz you're twice as fast.
</span>y+2y=6750,
3y=6750
y=2250
Your friend stuffed 2250 in 4.5 hrs.
You (twice as fast) stuffed 4500 in 4.5 hrs.
Working alone, your friend can stuff 2250 in 4.5hrs so it would take 13.5hrs to stuff 6750.
Equation.. (6750/2250) x 4.5hrs = 13.5hrs
You can 4500 in 4.5hrs so it would take you 6.75 hrs to stuff 6750.
Equation.. (6750/4500) x 4.5hrs = 6.75 hrs.
Answer:
The number he thought of was 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Revers the problem
3.5 * 3 = 10.5
10.5 - 4 = 6.5
6.5 * 2 = 13
Y-3=-3y-43
4y-3=-43
4y=-46
y=-11.5
Total distance John drove=450 miles
total time=8 hours
let the number of hours he drove on highway be x, number of hours he drove on turnpike will be (8-x) hours
since
distance=speed*time
distance traveled in highway=50x
distance traveled in turnpike=60(8-x)
thus the total distance will be:
50x+60(8-x)=450
simplifying the above
50x+480-60x=450
-10x=450-480
-10x=-30
thus
x=3 hours
Thus he drove on highway for 3 hours.
The vertical distance between two things is
(the height of the top one) <u>minus</u> (the height of the bottom one) .
