Together, Tim and Tom have $2.40. Tim has three times as much as Tom. How much does each have?

1 answer:

8 0

X = how much Tim has
y = how much Tom has
x + y = 2.40
x = 3y
Substitute 3y for x
3y + y = 2.40
4y = 2.40
y = 0.60
Plug in y value into previous equation
x = 3(0.60)
x = 1.80
ANSWERS: Tim has $1.80 and Tom has $0.60

Answer:

$m\widehat {MP} =46\degree$

Step-by-step explanation:

By inscribed angle theorem:

$m\angle MQP=\frac{1}{2} \times \widehat {MP}$

$23\degree =\frac{1}{2} \times m\widehat {MP}$

$23\degree \times 2= m\widehat {MP}$

$m\widehat {MP} =46\degree$

Answer:

The answer to the question is

1.5 hours that is;

When the distance between them is more then 135 miles is after 1.5 hours and they will lose radio contact at 3:30 p.m.

Step-by-step explanation:

We note that

The speed of the military convoy headed north =50 mph

The speed of the convoy headed south = 40 mph

Let t be the time taken for the two convoys to be 135 miles apart

The time taken for the two convoys to be 135 miles apart is given by

50×t miles+ 40×t miles= 135 miles

That is 90×t miles = 135 miles

t = 135/90 = 1.5 hrs
