D trust me plz give points
We have to assume that the speed before being stuck was sufficient to get to the destination on time had there been no delay. Call that speed "s" in km/h.
Since 200 km is "halfway", the total distance must be 400 km.
time = distance / speed
total time = (time for first half) + (delay) + (time for second half)
400/s = 200/s + 1 + 200/(s+10) . . . .times are in hours, distances in km
200/s = 1 + 200/(s+10) . . . . . . . . . . subtract 200/s
200(s+10) = s(s+10) +200s . . . . . . .multiply by s(s+10)
0 = s² +10s - 2000 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .subtract the left side
(s+50)(s-40) = 0
Solutions are s = -50, s = 40
The speed of the bus before the traffic holdup was 40 km/h.
38 14/15 - 5 1/3 = 33 3/5 or 33.6
33.6/4= 8.4
8.4= 8 2/5
the answer is 8 2/5
Jocelyn has to spend $13.46 on gas.
To find this, you first have to determine the number of miles she drives. You can find this by multiplying the speed by the travel time.
65 miles per hour * 1.5 hours = 97.5 miles.
Now that he have the amount of miles she drives, we can find the amount of gas she spends. In order to do that we'll divide the distance by the rate.
97.5 miles / 25 miles per gallon of gas = 3.9 gallons
Now we can determine the cost by multiplying the amount of gallons by the price.
3.9 gallons * $3.45 per gallon = $13.46
You need to give us answer choices.
However, I looked back to previous questions posted on Brainly, and I found one that was similar to yours.
The length of BE could possibly be 27 units.
