Answer:

24/35 hours  or 0.69 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The speed is equal to divide the distance by the time

Let

x-----> distance traveled by John

(24-x) ----> distance traveled by Ramona

The time is equal to divide the distance by the speed

so

x/20=(24-x)/15

15x=20(24-x)

15x=480-20x

15x+20x=480

35x=480

x=480/35 miles

the time is equal to

t=x/20

t=480/(20*35)=24/35=0.69 hours

There were 80 runners to start a race. In the first half of the race, 1/4 of them dropped out. In the second half of the race, 2
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

36 runners finished the race.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first half of the race, 1/4 of them dropped, so we need to calculate 1/4 of 80:

(1/4) * 80 = 80/4 = 20

If 20 runners dropped out, now we have 80 - 20 = 60 runners.

Then, in the second half, 2/5 of the remaining runners dropped out, so:

(2/5) * 60 = 2*60/5 = 120/5 = 24

If 24 runners dropped out, now we have 60 - 24 = 36 runners.

So, 36 runners finished the race.

Is the following relation a function? (
PolarNik [594]
No, because there are TWO values of y for a certain value of x

say x=5, then y=2 and y=-2

That does not satisfy the concept of the function.
