in what direction is Desiree from where she started?
1 answer:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The scenario is illustrated in the attached photo.
Desiree drove north for 30 minutes at 50 miles per hour.
Distance = speed × time
Distance travelled by Desiree to the north is 50 × 30 = 1500 miles
Distance travelled by Desiree back from the north and to the south is
60 × 20 = 1500 miles
She started from south and drove 1500 miles towards the north. She returned by driving 1200 miles again towards south . Distance of Desiree from where she started will be 1500 - 1200 = 300 miles.
She is 300 miles from her starting position and she is in the southern direction.

Total discount for 10 group tickets = 10 · 0.05t
Amount of discount per ticket = 0.05t
Number of tickets = 10
Cost of buying 10 single tickets = 10t
Solution:
Cost for single ticket = t dollars
Discount percent per ticket = 5%
Number of tickets bought = 10
Total discount for 10 group tickets = Number of tickets × Discount amount
= 10 × 0.05t
Total discount for 10 group tickets = 10 · 0.05t
Amount of discount per ticket = 5%t
= t
= 0.05t
Amount of discount per ticket = 0.05t
Number of tickets = 10
Cost of buying 10 single tickets = 10t
