Micah's velocity = 1 box / 15 minutes = 1/15 box/minute

Sidney's velocity = 1/x

Micah's velocity - Sidney's velocity = 1 box / 20 minutes = 1/20 box/mitue


1/15 - 1/x = 1/20

1/x = 1/15 - 1/20

Answer: option a. 1/15 - 1/20 = 1/x

What is the sum of the first 10 positive integers?<br><br> A) 55<br> B) 50 <br> C) 100<br> D) 95
olga2289 [7]
The correct answer here is A) 55. This is because a positive integer is defined as any number greater than 0 and has no decimals/ fractions in it. Therefore, you would add 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10, yielding 55 as your answer.
