Answer:

<h2>Frank speed = 37mi/h</h2><h2>Gregory speed = 59mi/hr</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of Frank be x and speed of Gregory be y. If Gregory drives 22 miles per hour faster than Frank, then y = 22+x. SInce they they are 216miles apart after 2.25 hours,

Speed = Distance/Time

Total time travelled by them = 2.25hours

Total distance = 216 hours

Total speed = x+y = x+22+x

Substituting this parameters into the formula given to get x we will have;

x+22+x = 216/2.25

2x+22 = 96

2x = 96-22

2x = 74

x = 74/2

x = 37

<em>Hence the speed of Frank is 37miles per hour while that of gregory is 37+22 = 59miles/hour</em>

Answer:leading Question

Step-by-step explanation:

Leading Question is the type of question that implicitly encourages a respondent to answer in a particular way. Leading questions are generally inappropriate as they lead to false and slanted information.

for example: If you ask an employee that "Do you have any Problem with your boss?"

This questions explicitly encourages the employee to think that there are Problems.

Another example is that  

"How fast is truck moving when it crashed into the car?"

This question directly blames the truck that it is at fault.

Darina [25.2K]

Step-by-step explanation: To add and subtract fractions with the same denominator, or bottom number, place the 2 fractions side by side. Add or subtract the numerators, or the top numbers, and write the result in a new fraction on the top. The bottom number of the answer will be the same as the denominator of the original fractions.
