Step-by-step explanation:
let the first-day ride be x
Then the second-day ride will be
=1.5
x
The third-day ride will be=1.5(1.5x)
The Fourth-day ride will be=1.5*1.5(1.5x)
hence for the four days the distance covered is
65=x+1.5x+1.5*1.5x+1.5*1.5*1.5x
65=x+1.5x+2.25x+3.375x
65=8.125x
divide both sides by 8.125 we have
x=65/8.125
x=8mile
the first-day ride be x=8miles
the second-day ride will be
=1.5
x
=1.5*8= 12miles
The third-day ride will be=1.5(1.5x) = 18miles
The Fourth-day ride will be=1.5*1.5(1.5x) = 27miles
Answer:
3 two-person committee's can be formed from a group of six people
First, find the area of the large rectangle (25*18=450) then find the area of the small square (7.5^2=56.25) finally subtract the small square from the large rectangle
