You'll reach destination in 1.6 days or rounded to 2 days.
->calculate how much did you pass already 1250×5/7=892 miles traveled (rounded)
->then calculate how much miles you have to go
1250-892=358 miles left to travel
->then calculate speed at which you travel
892/4(how much days you traveled already)=223miles per day
->then just divide miles left with speed
358/223=1.6 or 2 days left to reaching destination.

Jon recently drove to visit his parents who live 280 miles away. On his way there his average speed was 9 miles per hour faster
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

11 mph and 20 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent his average speed going by r1 and his average speed returning by r2.  We know that r1 = r2 + 9.

Recall that distance = rate times time, so time = distance / rate.

Time spent going was (280 mi) / r1, or (280 mi) / (r2 + 9 mph).

Time spend returning was (280 mi) / r2.

The total time was 14 hrs, so (280 mi) / (r2 + 9 mph) + (280 mi) / r2 = 14 hrs

Note that there is only one variable here:  r2.  Find r2, and then from r2, find r1:

Dividing all 3 terms by 14 hrs yields:

  20            20

---------- + ----------- = 1

r2 + 9         r2

The LCD here is r2(r2 + 9).  Thus, we have:

      20r2                    (r2 +  9)(r2)

------------------- = 1 or  ------------------

 (r2 +  9)(r2)               (r2 +  9)(r2)

Then 20(r2) = (r2)^2 + 9(r2).  This is reducible by dividing all terms by r2:

20 = r2 + 9, or 11 = r2.  Then r1 = 11 + 9, or 20.

The two rates were 11 mph and 20 mph.

Metal A has a density of 12.7 g/cm3.
stira [4]

Using the given information, the density of metal B is 8.58 g/cm³

<h3>Calculating density </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the density of metal B

From the given information,

55 g of metal A is combined with metal B to create an alloy with mass 90 g

∴ Mass of metal B in the alloy = 90 g - 55 g = 35 g

Now, we will determine the volume of metal A in the alloy

Using the formula,

Density = Mass / Volume

∴ Volume = Mass / Density

Volume of metal A in the alloy = 55/12.7

Volume of metal A in the alloy = 4.33 cm³

Then, we will determine the volume of the alloy

Volume of the alloy = 90/10.7

Volume of the alloy = 8.41 cm³

∴ Volume of metal B in the alloy = 8.41 cm³- 4.33 cm³

Volume of metal B in the alloy = 4.08 cm³

Now, for the density of metal B

Density = mass / volume

Density of metal B = 35 / 4.08

Density of metal B = 8.58 g/cm³

Hence, the density of metal B is 8.58 g/cm³.

The fare for a taxi cab is $2.50 per passenger and $0.75 for each mile. A group of friends has $22.00
xeze [42]

For this case we have to:

x: Let the variable representing the number of people to travel in the group

y: Let the variable representing the number of miles traveled.

If friends only have $22 then we have the following inequality:

2.50x + 0.75y \leq22

Now, if there are three people in the group we have that x = 3.

2.50 (3) + 0.75y \leq22\\7.5 + 0.75y \leq22\\0.75y \leq22-7.5\\0.75y \leq14.5\\y\leq \frac {14.5} {0.75}\\y\leq19.33

The taxi can travel a maximum of 19.33 miles.

On the other hand, if the group wants to travel 10 miles then we have to y = 10.

2.50x + 0.75 (10) \leq22\\2.50x + 7.5 \leq22\\2.50x \leq22-7.5\\2.50x \leq14.5\\x\leq \frac {14.5} {2.50}\\x \leq5.8

Thus, they could travel a maximum of 5 people.

ANswer:

2.50x + 0.75y \leq22

Traveling 3 people, the taxi can travel a maximum of 19.33 miles

Traveling 10 miles, a maximum of 5 people can travel
