Answer:

2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Time= 5 hrs

Ashley's speed= 40 mph

Beth's speed= 60 mph

Beth's time in travel= x

Since they drove the same distance, we have this equation:

  • 60x=40(5-x)
  • 60x=200-40x
  • 100x=200
  • x=200/100
  • x=2 hours

7/10 ÷ 1/5 <br> pls i need help
blondinia [14]
7/10 ÷ 1/5 = 3 1/2 because if you just find the reciprocal of the second number (in this case 1/5) and then simply multiply the two numbers straight across after you find the reciprocal, you will need to convert and simplify as needed, and then you get your answer.

If I = prt; p = 350, r = 6%, I = 42, then t = 2 A. True B. False
Liono4ka [1.6K]

t = 2 → A true

given I = PRT

to find T , divide both sides by PR

note that R = 6% = \frac{6}{100} = 0.06

T = \frac{I}{PR} = 42/( 350 × 0.06 ) = 2

How would I solve this
irinina [24]

Answer:

  • 570 mph
  • 610 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the speed of the slower plane. The faster plane's speed is then x+40. The sum of speeds is ...

   x + (x+40) = 1180

  2x = 1140 . . . . subtract 40

  x = 570 . . . . . .divide by 2

  x+40 = 610 . . . . the speed of the faster plane

The two speeds are 570 mph and 610 mph.
