Answer:

x=6 ; y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'y' stand for the speed of the wind and 'x' stand for the speed of Santa. We will use the general equation (distance)=(rate)(time) to write two equations from the given information:

With the wind:

35=(x+y)(5)

Against the wind:

35=(x-y)(7)

Now we have two equations and two unknowns so we can solve for x and y. We get:

x=6 miles/min

y=1 miles/min

$6.75 and $4.50

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Jamal spent:

Isaiah spent:

3 (x - 2.25)

The equation is:

2x = 3(x - 2.25)

3x - 2x = 6.75
x = 6.75

c) Jamal's items cost

$6.75 each

Isaiah's items cost

$6.75 - $2.25 = $4.50 each

Why do you think gas stations often quote a price per gallon that ends in 9/10 of a cent? Do you think this is an appropriate us

arlik [135]

The practice of tacking 9/10 of a cent on the end of a gas price goes back to when gas cost only pennies per gallon and was a tax imposed by state and federal governments. Gas stations added the fraction of a cent on the end of the price instead of rounding up the price.
