<span>speed = distance/time
total time is 8 hours
outgoing speed is 160 km per hour,
so time = d/160
</span><span>returning speed is 240 km per hour,
so time = d/240
d/160 + d/240 = 8
3d/480 + 2d/480 = 8
5d/480 = 8
5d =480 (8)
5d = 3840
d=3840/5
d=768
answer: so the distance is 768 km</span>
Answer:
The Car.
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the unit rate for each vehicle to figure out who is traveling faster or slower.
Car: 600/20 = 30 ft per second
Motorcycle: 300/12 = 25 ft per second
So, the Car is faster
Answer:
x=-4
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
We can factor x^2 -16 = 0 by recognizing that it is a difference of squares. That means we can factor the equation to (x-4)(x+4) = 0. By using the Zero Product Property we know that either (x-4) or (x+4) is equal to 0. That means that x either equals -4 or 4.
