<u>Answer:</u>

Approximately after 2 hours the distance between the two cars will be 268 miles.

Solution:

We know distance = speed\times time.

Here it is given that the speed of Car 1 is 65 mph and the speed of car 2 is 2.5 mph faster than car 1. It means that the speed of car 2 is (65+2.5) = 67.5 mph

We will use the below given equation to find out the time after which the distance between the two cars will be 268 miles.

Let ‘t’ be the time after which the distance between the two car will be 268 miles.

∴ A/Q,  65t + 67.5t = 268

132.5t = 268

t = \frac{268}{132.5}

t = 2.02 hour

Therefore, approximately after 2 hour the distance between the two cars will be 268 miles.

Answer:

1\frac{7}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

1\frac{1}{3} is the same as 4/3 so you'd be multiplying 4/3 x 4/3 so you multiply straight across to get 16/9 when you simplify you are left with 1 7/9

Hope that helps and have a great day!

A triangle is in the shape of a 30-60-90 right triangle. If the hypotenuse is 11 cm long, find the length of the shorter leg.
soldier1979 [14.2K]
A 30 60 90 triangle has its shorter side equal to one half the hypotenuse.
So, if hypotenuse = 11 cm then shorter side = 5.5.
