Gilda walks to the train station. If she walks at the rate of 3 mph, she misses her train by 7 minutes. However, if she walks at
lorasvet [3.4K]
We'll represent the distance as d and the time as t. 
d= 3(t+7)            because Gilda is 7 minutes late when travelling 3 mph
d= 4(t-5)             because Gilda is 5 minutes early at 4 mph

d= 3t + 21
d= 4t -20
3t +21 =4t -20
41=t
d= 3(41) +21= 144
The distance is 144 miles.

At an apple orchard, Margaret picked 19 1 2 pounds of apples. The cashier put the apples into 3 bags with the same weight. How m
True [87]

6.5 pounds of apples are there in each bag

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Find the pounds of apple in each bag

Total weight of apples = 19 1/2 = 39/2

Number of bags = 3

Weight of each bag = 39/2 ÷ 3

                                 = 39/2 × 1/3 (∵ a÷b = a × 1/b)

                                 = 13/2 = 6.5 pounds

Find the measures of supplementary angles 1 and 2, if: m∠1:m∠2=5:4 using statements and reasons.
adell [148]

Answer:

<h2>m∠1 = 100°, m∠2 = 80°</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We know: Supplementary angles add up to 180°.

Therefore

m∠1 + m∠2 = 180° → m∠2 = 180° - m∠1     (*)

We have

m\angle1:m\angle2=5:4\to\dfrac{m\angle1}{m\angle2}=\dfrac{5}{4}

Substitute (*):

\dfrac{m\angle1}{180^o-m\angle1}=\dfrac{5}{4}           <em>cross multiply</em>

4m\angle1=5(180^o-m\angle1)        <em>use the distributive property</em>

4m\angle1=(5)(180^o)+(5)(-m\angle1)

4m\angle1=900^o-5m\angle1          <em>add 5m∠1 to both sides</em>

9m\angle1=900^o         <em>divide both sides by 9</em>

m\angle1=100^o\to m\angle2=180^o-100^o=80^o
