Total distance John drove=450 miles
total time=8 hours
let the number of hours he drove on highway be x, number of hours he drove on turnpike will be (8-x) hours
since
distance=speed*time
distance traveled in highway=50x
distance traveled in turnpike=60(8-x)
thus the total distance will be:
50x+60(8-x)=450
simplifying the above
50x+480-60x=450
-10x=450-480
-10x=-30
thus
x=3 hours
Thus he drove on highway for 3 hours.
its spends 2.5 hours going 35 miles per hour. so the answer is 2.5 because 35 miles as you said goes 2.5 hours
Answer:
1:23
Step-by-step explanation:
20 / 460
= 1 / 23
= 1:23
What you need to do is give these problems a common denominator. Which makes 3/21 and14/21 respectively. Logically, you need to walk 4/21 of the trail. This can’t be simplified further.
