Person a can walk 5 miles in an hour.
Person b can walk 3 miles in an hour.
They are 12 miles apart, and after an hour they have covered 8 miles.

8:1 = 12:x

8x = 12

x = 1.5

After an hour and a half, they will meet.

Check:
5 miles : 1 hour = 7.5 miles : 1.5 hours

3 miles : 1 hour = 4.5 miles : 1.5 hours

Together, they should have covered 12 miles.
7.5 + 4.5 = 12

It takes 1.5 hours to meet eachother.

The value of 110 coins, consisting of dimes and quarters, is $20.30. how many of each kind of coin are there?
deff fn [24]
D + q = 110......d = 110 - q
0.10d + 0.25q = 20.30

0.10(110 - q) + 0.25q = 20.30
11 - 0.10q + 0.25q = 20.30
-0.10q + 0.25q = 20.30 - 11
0.15q = 9.30
q = 9.30/0.15
q = 62 <==== there are 62 quarters

d = 110 - q
d = 110 - 62
d = 48 <==== there are 48 dimes

I don't know how to find a different angle from this. PLEASE HELP FIND X!!!! THANKS!!!
timama [110]

The intersection of the two red rays forms a set of vertical angle pairs. In such a pair, angles opposite one another have the same measure, so the angle opposite the one labeled 93 degrees also has measure 93 degrees.

The red ray on the right together with the black ray pointing directly to the right form a pair of supplementary angles, whose measures add up to 180 degrees. This means the angle adjacent to the one labeled 128 degrees has measure 180 - 128 degrees.

In any triangle, the interior angles' measures add up to 180 degrees. So we have

? + 93 + (180 - 128) = 180

? + 93 - 128 = 0

? = 128 - 93

? = 35
