The average speed of Martha and Sarah is 32 km/h.

We need to know about the speed to solve this problem. Speed can be determined as the distance traveled divided by time. It can be written as

v = s / t

where v is speed, s is distance and t is time.

From the question above, we know that:

t sarah = 3 hours

t martha = 5 hours

v sarah = 40 km/h

By using the speed equation, we get the distance

vsarah = s / tsarah

40 = s/3

s = 120 km

Find Martha's speed

vmartha = s / tmartha

vmartha = 120 / 5

vmartha = 24 km/h

Find average speed

v = (vsarah + vmartha)/2

v = (40 + 24) / 2

v = 32 km/h

Hence, the average speed of Martha and Sarah is 32 km/h.

In your notebook, set up the following subtraction in a vertical format and select the correct answer. Find 2p 2 3p - 4 less - 2
Elena L [17]

The equation in the reduced form of the equation is \rm 4p^ 2 + 6p - 8.

Given that,

Equation; \rm  2p^ 2 + 3p - 4\  by\  -2p ^2 - 3p +4

We have to reduce the equation.

According to the question,

To reduce the equation means we need to subtract one equation from the other.

To determine the reduced form of the equation following all the steps given below.

Equation; \rm  2p^ 2 + 3p - 4\  by\  -2p ^2 - 3p +4

Subtraction equation 1 from equation 2,

\rm  = \rm  2p^ 2 + 3p - 4\  -(-2p ^2 - 3p + 4)\\\\=  2p^ 2 + 3p - 4\  -(-2p ^2 -3p +4)\\\\ = 2p^ 2 + 3p - 4+2p^ 2 + 3p - 4 \\\\ = 4p^ 2 + 6p - 8

Hence, The equation in the reduced form of the equation is \rm 4p^ 2 + 6p - 8.

You have 10 cups of a cleaning solution that is 10% white vinegar and 90% water. You want the mixture to be 50% white vinegar an
vichka [17]
Whatever% of anything is just (whatever/100) * anything.

let's say we'll add "x" cups of pure vinegar, pure vinegar meaning is 100% vinegar.

how much vinegar is there in "x" cups of 100% vinegar?  well (100/100) * x, or just "x".

how much vinegar is there in 10 cups of 10% vinegar?  well, (10/100) * 10, or just 1.

say after adding the "x" cups to the 10 cups, we end up with "y" cups, of 50% of vinegar.

how much is 50% of y?  well, (50/100) * y or 0.5y.

bearing in mind that x+10 = y, both cups amounts added up, and that x+1=0.5y, both vinegar amounts added up, thus 

\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}&#10;&\stackrel{cups}{amount}&\stackrel{vinegar~\%}{amount}&\stackrel{vinegar~cups}{quantity}\\&#10;\textit{100\% vinegar}&x&1.00&x\\&#10;\textit{10\% cups}&10&0.10&1\\&#10;------&------&------&------\\&#10;mixture&y&0.5&0.5y&#10;\end{array}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;x+10=\boxed{y}\\&#10;x+1=0.5y\\&#10;----------\\&#10;x+1=0.5\left( \boxed{x+10} \right)&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;x+1=0.5x+5\implies 0.5x=4\implies x=\cfrac{4}{0.5}\implies x=8
