This is the concept of relative speed; We are required to calculate the speed of the car and the bicycle.
Distance between the car and Bicycle=374 miles
Time they met=5.5 hr
Speed traveled by bicycle=x
Speed traveled by car=x+33.4334
Relative speed=x+(x+33.4334)=(2x+33.4334) mph
Distance=speed*time
374=(2x+33.4334)*5.5
374=11x+183.8837
collecting like term we get:
374-183.8837=11x
11x=190.1163
thus;
x=(190.1163)/(11)
x=17.2833 mph
thus the speed of the bicycle was x=17.2833 mph
The speed of the car was (x+33.4334)=(17.2833+33.4334)=50.7167 mph

laila [671]

Answer:

For blue its 3/12 = 1/4 = 25%

For red it's 6/12= 1/2= 50%

For green 2/12= 1/6= 17%

For black 1/12= 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

All you have to do is add up all the marbles 3 + 6 + 2 + 1 = 12 and then you put the number of marbles for each color and divide it by 12 which gives you those percentages. I don't know if you wanted the answers in percentages or fractions so I gave you both . Good luck!!
