Answer:
The sidewalk moves at 0.5 ft/sec
Josie's speed walking on a non-moving ground is 3.5ft/sec
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of the side walk and y represent her walking speed
It takes Jason's 8-year-old daughter Josie 44 sec to travel 176 ft walking with the sidewalk
Distance = speed × time
176 = (x+y)×44
44x+44y = 176
x+y = 4 .......1
It takes her 7 sec to walk 21 ft against the moving sidewalk in the opposite direction).
21 = (y-x)7
7y - 7x = 21
y - x = 3 ......2
Add equation 1 to 2
2y = 7
y = 3.5 ft/sec
From equation 1
x + y = 4
x = 4 - 3.5 = 0.5
x = 0.5 ft/sec
The sidewalk moves at 0.5 ft/sec
Josie's speed walking on a non-moving ground is 3.5ft/sec
Divide
8/1 / 2/3
Keep change flip
8/1 x 3/2
Simplify
4/1 x 3/1
12/1
He can make 12 2/3 ounce peanuts with 8 ounces of peanuts.
Answer:
Don't subtract exactly or it will be incorrect, you'll have to add the years, and differentiate the leap years
Step-by-step explanation:

sorry I dont have a shorter method
<span>So we want to know the number of teachers the university should have if the ratio of students to teachers is 14:1 and the number of students is 896. If x is the number of teachers: 14/1=896/x. Now we solve for x: Lets multiply both sides with x: x*(14/1)=896 and divide both sides by 14 and we get: x=896/14 and x=64. So the university should have 64 teachers.</span>
