Answer:

Speed of a= 21 miles/hr

r = Speed of b= 7 miles/hr

Speed of a = 3r

Step-by-step explanation:

The cyclist are 112 miles apart

Time traveled by two = 4 hours

Speed of a = 3 * speed of b

If a cylcles 3 times More than b, then a will cover 3*distance of b

But speed = distance/time

Time = 4hours

Total distance=112

a = 3b

3b + b = 112

4b = 112

b = 112/4

b = 28 miles

a = 3b

a = 3*28

a = 84 Miles

They bought traveled 4 hours

Speed of a = 84miles/4 hours

Speed of a= 21 miles/hr

Speed of b = 28miles/4 hours

Speed of b = 7 miles/hr

3 more than a number then divided the result by 8
ziro4ka [17]

We are given statement : 3 more than a number then divided the result by 8.

We need to write an algebraic expression for it.

Let us assume unknown number be n.

3 more than n = (n+3).

Now, we need to divide that result (n+3) by 8.

So, we would get (n+3) divided by 8 = \frac{n+3}{8}.

<h3>Therefore, final expression is \frac{n+3}{8}.</h3>

Answers: 11-20

Step-by-step explanation: Step 1. Flip the equation Step 2. Add the number to both sides Step 3. Divide both sides by the number to get your answer.

1. v=10 2. m=7 3. r=-9 4. k=9 5. r=0 6. x=10 7. x=6 8. 9=3 9. m=-10 10. n=-10

11.p=0

12.x=10

13.b=4

14.n=0

15.p=2

16.x=8

17.m=8

18.x=3

19.n=-1

20.n=9
