Subtract 7.50 - 4.00 and dived that answer by 10
Since the buses travel in opposite directions, the speed at which they distance themselves is the sum of their speeds.
One bus travels at speed s.
The other bus travels at speed s + 15.
The sum of the speeds is s + s + 15 = 2s + 15
speed = distance/time
distance = speed * time
366 = (2s + 15) * 2
183 = 2s + 15
168 = 2s
s = 84
The slower bus travels at 84 km/h.
s + 15 = 84 + 15 = 99
The faster bus travels at 99 km/h.
Check:
In 2 hours, the slower bus travels 2 * 84 km = 168 km
In 2 hours, the faster bus travels 2 * 99 km = 198 km
In 2 hours, the buses are 198 km + 168 km = 366 km apart.
Our answer is correct.
I wasn't going to click on this one, but the all-caps enthralled me and hypnotized me.
first off, let's change all the mixed fractions to "improper" and proceed from there, keep in mind that if we subtract the two bags' weight from the total, what's leftover is the 3rd bag's weight.
Absolute value is when you have either a positive or negative value within a set of "parentheses" or what look just like vertical lines and whatever is within those line stays or becomes positive. The only exception to this is when there is a negative on the outside to act upon the positive values within.
Answer:
A. 2
B. 10/3
C. 8/3
D. 2/3
Step-by-step explanation: put the whole #and make it into a fraction like this e.g.
6/1 • 1/3 = 6/3 simplifies to 2
