Multiply 1/3 by 4/4 (anything besides zero over itself is equal to 1) to get 4/12.
Multiply 2/3 by 4/4 to get 8/12.

7/12 is greater than 3/12 but less than 8/12.

If someone left at the same time as you and got there before you driving at 60 miles per hour and you and at 40 miles per hour.
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

By calculating the time taken to reach we get to know that the The time taken by the other person is less than yourself

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the other person and yourself left at the same time and the speed of the other person is 60 miles per hour and the speed of yourself is 40 miles per hour.

We know that the speed=\frac{distance}{time}

Let the time taken to reach the destination at a distance of d by the other person is T1.

Then 60=\frac{d}{T1}

T1=\frac{d}{60}

Let the time taken to reach the destination at a distance of d by the yourself is T2.

Then 40=\frac{d}{T2}

T2=\frac{d}{40}

Now the time difference is = T2-T1 = \frac{d}{60} -\frac{d}{40} = -\frac{d}{120}

Therefore T1 > T2 which means the time taken to reach the destination by yourself is greater than that of other person .

A store charges their customers based on the number of items that they buy. Jane bought four items and was charged $15 and Georg
scZoUnD [109]
Jane was charged $15/4 = $3.75 per item and George was charged
$39/12 = $3.25 per item, so in addition to the charge per item, there must be an extra charge for each purchase.

We note that George bought 12-4 = 8 more items than Jane and was charged
$39 - $15 = $24 more, or $24/8 = $3 more for each additional item. So if we figure $3 per item, we can find out that extra charge.

Jane paid 4 * $3 = $12 for her 4 items, plus $3 to make her total $15.
George paid 12 * $3 = $36 for his 12 items, plus $3 to make his total $39.
So we can see that if x is the number of items, the store charges
x times $3 plus an extra $3.

Using function notation, we write
f(x) = 3x + 3
and then work out the charge for 22 items:
f(22) = 3 * 22 + 3 = 66 + 3 = 69
