Answer:
Let x = the hours needed for Wanda to catch up to Hector.
Hector has already completed 18 miles. Hector travels at 12 miles per hour.
After x more hours, Hector will travel
18 + 12x miles
Wanda travels at 16 miles per hour. In x hours, she travels
16x miles
If Wanda catches up to Hector, then
16x = 18 + 12x
4x = 18
x = 4.5 hours
Answer: 4 hours, 30 minutes (or 4.5 hours)
Step-by-step explanation:
When a line passes through the two points
, its slope is given by the formula 
In this question, a line L passes through the points 
So, its slope is given by

When two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is -1.
Since, the slope of the line L is
, so the slope of the line which is perpendicular to the given line L is
as the product of
.
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the information you have given me, p = 1/3.
All we need to do is substitute that value into the expression:
12p = 12(1/3) = 4
So, what is the total lenght of the pieces that wer cut off?
we multiply the lenght by the number:
4

*5=20+

=21

and we subtract this from the original pipe, that is
30

-21

we need to bring the two fractions to the same denominator (by multiplying the fraction art in the first by 3 and 4 the second):
30

-21

=9

so the correct answer is D!
Answer:
