Answer:Since the vehicles are travelling in the exact opposite direction, the sum of their rates is the rate at which they are separating. 48 + 64 = 112 miles per hour of separation.

728 miles ÷ 112 miles/hour = 6.5 hours

Cookies are on sale! Today each cookie costs $0.75 less than the normal price. Right now if you buy 7 of them it will only cost
Talja [164]
Ok, let us use "C" as our variable that will equal the normal price.

   (C - $.75) 7 = $2.80

Divide both sides of equation by 7
C - $.75 = $2.80 / 7 Add $.75 to both sides of equation

C = $.40 + $.75

C = $1.15

One bar of candy A and two bars of candy B have 774 calories. Two bars of candy A and one bar of candy B contains 786 calories.
vampirchik [111]
◆ Define the variables:

Let the calorie content of Candy A = a
and the calorie content of Candy B = b

◆ Form the equations:

One bar of candy A and two bars of candy B have 774 calories. Thus:

a + 2b = 774

Two bars of candy A and one bar of candy B contains 786 calories

2a + b = 786

◆ Solve the equations:

From first equation,
a + 2b = 774
=> a = 774 - 2b

Put a in second equation
2×(774-2b) + b = 786
=> 2×774 - 2×2b + b = 786
=> 1548 - 4b + b = 786
=> -3b = 786 - 1548
=> -3b = -762
=> b = -762/(-3) = 254 calorie

◆ Find caloric content:

Caloric content of candy B = 254 calorie

Caloric content of candy A = a = 774 - 2b = 774 - 2×254 = 774 - 508 = 266 calorie
