Let x = amount of time the Arlen family must catch up to
overtake the Harris family
In principle, the Harris and the Arlen family should cover
the same distance. Since distance is speed x time,
45 (6+y) = 58y
270 + 45y = 58y
58y - 45y = 270
y = 270 ÷ 13
y= 20.77min
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert 6 hours to minutes so that 6 hours and 16. 3 minutes can be in the same units.
Since 1 hour = 60 minutes, then 6 hours = 6 x 60 minutes = 360 minutes
Since the insect has more minutes to crawl (360 minutes), then we expect more inches to be covered. Therefore, the ratio is 360 minutes to 16.3 minutes
= 360 minutes : 16.3 minutes
= 360 : 16.3
Now express the ratio as fraction and relate it with 30 inches
= 360/16.3 x 30/1
= 10800/16.3
= 662 .576687 and this is approximately 650 inches
Answer = 650 = (C)
