Answer:
In traffic, she drove for 3 hours
and After the traffic cleared she drove for 2 hours.
Explanation:
Given that the road trip was 136 miles;
The first part of the trip there was lots of traffic, she only averaged 16 mph;
The second part of the trip there was no traffic so she could drive 44 mph;
She traveled for a total of 5 hours;
let x represent the time in traffic when she traveled at 16 mph
the time the traffic is clear would be;
Recall that distance equals speed multiply by time;
substituting the values;
solving for x;
So;
Therefore, In traffic, she drove for 3 hours
and After the traffic cleared she drove for 2 hours.
Answer:
(1) There were fewer than 110 boxes in the warehouse before the 60 additional boxes arrived. (2) There were fewer than 120 boxes in the warehouse after the 60 additional boxes arrived.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that all the boxes in a certain warehouse were arranged in stacks of 12 boxes each, with no boxes left over.
This implies that boxes are in multiples of 12
i.e. 12, or 24, or 36 or....
Let us say this as 12m for m an integer
Now additional boxes arrived =60
Total number of boxes now =
This when arranged in stacks of 14,nothing left out
Or this is multiple of 14
for some positive integer n.
By trial and error we find that if 60 is to be divided by 14, 24 should be added and 24 is a multiple of 12.
So we say originally 24 boxes were there now 84 boxes there.
Hence both options are right.
(1) There were fewer than 110 boxes in the warehouse before the 60 additional boxes arrived. (2) There were fewer than 120 boxes in the warehouse after the 60 additional boxes arrived.
