Eugene walked all the way to school at 3 mph then realized she forgot her math book (how could she?!), so she ran back at 7 mph.
Fynjy0 [20]

\text{Answer: }1\frac{23}{40}\ miles\text{ far she live from school.}

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Speed at which Eugene walked all the way to school = 3 mph

After realizing that she forgot her math book, she ran back

Speed at which Eugene walked back to her house = 7 mph

Let the distance between her house and her school be x

According to question,

\frac{x}{3}+\frac{x}{7}=\frac{45}{60}\\\\\frac{7x+3x}{21}=\frac{3}{4}\\\\\frac{10x}{21}=\frac{3}{4}\\\\x=\frac{3\times 63}{4\times 10}=\frac{63}{40}=1\frac{23}{40}\ miles.

Hence,

1\frac{23}{40}\ miles\text{ far she live from school.}

In inches, Micah is 5 inches shorter than twice the height of Jasmine, who is 32 inches tall. How tall is Micah in inches?
Monica [59]
Micah is 5 inches shorter than twice the height of Jasmine

Micah = 5 inches shorter than 2 x Jasmine

Micah = 2 x Jasmine - 5    <em>(jasmine is 32 inches tall. Replace jasmine with 32)
</em>
Micah = 2 x 32 - 5

Micah = 64 - 5

Micah = 59

Micah is 59 inches tall
