Answer:
12t -3 = 18t
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
d = your friends distance in miles
t = time in hrs
Your equation:
d - 3 = 18t (1)
Because you are 3 miles behind your friend
Your Friend's equation:
d = 12t (2)
To find the amount of time t it takes for you to catch up with your friend,
Substitute (2) into (1)
d - 3 = 18t
12t - 3 = 18t
Equation to find the amount of time t it takes for you to catch up to your friend is 12t - 3 = 18t
Solving the equation
12t - 3 = 18t
Collect like terms
12t - 18t = 3
-6t = 3
t = 3/-6
= -0.5
t = 1/2 hour
Time can not be negative, therefore it will take 1/2 an hour to catch up with your friend
If you don’t mind me asking what is the question I’m confused because I might be able to help but I have no clue what the question is.
So since each pack has 6 packs we need to multiple. 6x8= 48.
There were 48 diet sodas in the cooler. 40 were drank. The fraction would be 40/48 were drank or 8/48 cans were not drunk.
For the lowest term, it would be 1/6 for 8/48 and 5/24 for 40/48.
Good luck with your studies! <3
