I tried my best for this I’m pretty for sure I remember doing this in school but I’m not for sure I hope this helped a little bit
The first step in solving any word problem is to read the problem carefully.
Steps would be as follows:
1- Read the problem carefully
2- Identify what you are trying to find
3- Make a plan
4- Solve the problem
5- Check that your answer makes sense
Answer:
we can not draw on here
Step-by-step explanation:
R * p = -37.8
Solve for either R or p.
R = -37.8/p
Now plug into R + p = 13.5
-37.8/p + p = 13.5
Solve for p.
After finding p, plug your p-value into either R + p or R*p to find R.
Take it from here.
Luke: 2 miles in 40 minutes, 20 minutes a mile, (2/40 = 20 minutes a mile)
Luke's speed is 3 miles an hour (60minutes/20minutes a mile = 3miles).
Sally: 0.05 miles a minute, 60 minutes in an hour, 60 x 0.05 = 3 miles an hour. Or 0.05 miles a minute, 40 minutes walked, 40 x 0.05 = 2 miles walked.
There are a few other ways to show that they are accurate rates.
So yes, they are both correct rates.
