we know that

speed=distance/time

It takes 40 min for a bus to cover 36 miles

then

speed of the bus=distance/time--------> 36/40-------> 0.9 miles/min

speed of the car=1.4*speed of the bus-----> 1.4*0.9----> 1.26 miles/min

For time=t

bus

t=distance/speed--------> t=x/0.9------> equation 1

car

t=distance/speed--------> t=(36-x)/1.26-----> equation 2

equate equation 1 and equation 2

x/0.9=(36-x)/1.26-----> 1.26x=0.9*(36-x)-----> 1.26x=32.4-0.9x

1.26x+0.9x=32.4------> x=32.4/2.16-------> x=15 miles

equation 1

t=x/0.9------> 15/0.9------> t=16.67 min

the answer is

they will meet at the time 16.67 minutes

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

average is calculated as

average = \frac{sum}{count}

\frac{sum}{2} = 13 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

Someone please help

Answer:

(a) So the top of the hill is 365 feet above sea level.

(b) Checkpoint 5 is 185 feet higher than checkpoint 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Solution for (a):</u>

<u />

Checkpoint 2 is -218 feet above sea level.

The top of a hill rises 583 feet above Checkpoint 2.

The altitude of the top of the hill = -218 + 583 = 365

So the top of the hill is 365 feet above sea level.

<u>Solution for (b):</u>

<u />

Checkpoint 2 is -218 feet above sea level.

Checkpoint 5 is -33 feet above sea level.

Checkpoint 5 is -33 - -218 = 185 feet higher than checkpoint 2.
