Answer:

Their contact will end after 2 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let east be positive and west be negative.

The first team travels east at 20 miles per hour.

Speed of first team = 20 mph

The second team travels west at 25 mph

Speed of second team = -25 mph

Relative speed = 20- (-25) = 45 mph

Range of radio = 90 miles

We need to find how long will it be before they lose radio contact.

           Distance = Time x Speed

            90 = Time x 45

            Time = 2 hours

Their contact will end after 2 hours.

The length of a rectangle is (2x+5) units and the breadth is (3x-1) units .Find the perimeter and the area of the rectangle.
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Perimeter =  10x + 8 units.

Area = 6x^2 + 13x - 5 units^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter  is 2*length + 2*breadth

= 2(2x + 5) + 2(3x - 1)

= 4x + 10 + 6x - 2

= 10x + 8 units.

The area = length * breadth

= (2x + 5)(3x - 1)

= 6x^2 - 2x + 15x - 5

= 6x^2 + 13x - 5 units^2.
