Jamie drove 2.5 hours and Raul drove 1.5 hours.  We know they traveled a total of 240 miles.  So rate x time = distance.

Jamie's distance = 2.5R (R being the speed she drove)
Raul's distance = 1.5R (R being the speed he drove)
R is the same for both since they drove the same speed.  The only thing different is time.

2.5R + 1.5R = 240
4R = 240
R = 240/4
R= 60

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

$13.40

Step-by-step explanation:

First you subtract the lax from the total cost of the CDs then you divided that total by the number of CDs which is 6.

84.60 - 4.20 = 80.40

\sqrt[6]{80.40} = $13.40

A company plans to enclose three parallel rectangular areas for sorting returned goods. The three areas are within one large rec
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

The largest total area that can be enclosed will be a square of length 272 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we get the perimeter of the large rectangular enclosure.

Perimeter of a rectangle =2(l + w)

Perimeter of the large rectangular enclosure= 1088 yard

Therefore:

2(L+W)=1088

The region inside the fence is the area

Area: A = LW

We need to solve the perimeter formula for either the length or width.

2L+ 2W= 1088 yd

2W= 1088– 2L

W = \frac{1088-2L}{2}

W = 544–L

Now substitute W = 544–L into the area formula

A = LW

A = L(544 – L)

A = 544L–L²

Since A is a quadratic expression, we re-write the expression with the exponents in descending order.

A = –L²+544L

Next, we look for the value of the x coordinate

L= -\frac{b}{2a}

L= -\frac{544}{2X-1}

L=272 yards

Plugging L=272 yards into the calculation for area:

A = –L²+544L

A(272)=-272²+544(272)

=73984 square yards

Thus the largest area that could be encompassed would be a square where each side has a length of 272 yards and a width of:

W = 544 – L

= 544 – 272

= 272 yards
