allochka39001 [22]
Let x be the 1st number
x + 9 be the second number

Equation:
x + x+9 = 171

Solution:
2x + 9 = 171
2x = 171 - 9
2x = 162
x = 81
x + 9 = 90

81 + 90 = 171

Nancy and Karen went on a trip to the mountain. Nancy started her trip 30 minutes later than Karen. They started from the same p
Katyanochek1 [597]
Distance = (rate)(time)
In this problem, note that both girls traveled the same distance.

Karens distance = r * 1.5 hrs          we dont know her rate
Nancy distance = 50 * 1 hr              we know she started 30 min later
                                                         but arrived at the same time

since the distances are equal
r*1.5 = 50 * 1          all you have to do is solve for r

1.5r = 50
r = 50/1.5
r = 33 1/3 miles per hour
