So this is not too hard, as with any math problem we write what we know.

Starting speed: 80km/h
Time from P to Q: 2.5h
Increase in speed: 20km/h (25% is dividing by 4)
Distance from Q to R: 150 kilometers

So let's find the speed and distance for both legs of the trip.

Speed for P to Q: 80km/h
Distance from PtoQ: 200km (2.5h * 80km/h)
Speed from Q to R: 100km/h (80 +20)
Distance from QtoR: 150km.

Now we multiply the speeds by their respective distances add them and then divide by the total distance.

((80 *200) + (100 * 150))/350 = ~88.57143

What is the quotient (3x4 + 4x – 15) + (x + 3)?
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

3x-5 and r=0

Step-by-step explanation:

We can do it by long division method  the required quotient is 3x-5 and r=0

not 3x-1 , r=1

multiply the divisor with 3x  we will get to cancel out the first term of dividend

Now after solving we will get  

Now, multiply the divisor by -5 we will get -5x-15 which will cancel the entire dividend.

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

  • 12 students

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Below numbers are divisible by the number of students:</u>

  • 28 - 4 = 24
  • 39 - 3 = 36

<u>Lets find GCF of 24 and 36:</u>

  • 24 = 2*2*2*3
  • 36 = 2*2*3*3
  • GCF(24,36) = 2*2*3 = 12

The largest possible number of students is 12
