The key is Esther travelled the same distance - x - in both her morning and evening commute.
45(time she took in the morning, or p) = x
30(time she took in the evening, or q) = x
Therefore 45(p) = 30(q), or divide both sides by 5 and get 9(p) = 6(q). I know you can divide it further, but these numbers are small enough and it's not worth the time.
Since the whole trip took an hour, (p + q) = 60min, and so, p = 60-q.
Therefore 9(60-q) = 6q or 540-9q = 6q. So 540 = 15q, which makes q = 36. If q = 36, then by (p+q)=60, p (the time she took in the morning) must equal 24.
45 miles per hour, her speed in the morning, times (24/60) hours, her time, makes 18 miles travelled in the morning. If you check, 30 miles per hour times (36/60) hours also makes 18 miles in the evening.

Answer:
32 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of the larger rectangle is double that of the smaller one. If we assume the rectangles are similar, the perimeter will be double as well:
2·(16 ft) = 32 feet . . . . perimeter of larger rectangle
__
The width of the larger one is 2·1.8 ft = 3.6 ft.
1. The figure is a prism: V = lwh = (12.1)(5.3)(4.2) = 269.3 cu. cm.
2. The figure is also a prism but the base is triangular: V = 1/2*b*h*l = 1/2*(13)*(sqrt(3)/2*13)*24 = 1756.3 cu. yd.
I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly. We hope to answer more of your questions and inquiries soon. Have a nice day ahead!
Answer:
5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
if they hike 3 miles per 1 hour, and you divide 15 (miles) by 3 (miles) you get 5 hours because each hour they walk 3 miles
(so sorry if this is confusing!! its very hard to explain for me lol)
