Answer:

6 PM

Step-by-step explanation:

The truck has a 2 hour head start.  It is moving at 45 km/h, so it is 90 km ahead.

If t is the time after 8 AM, then the distance between the truck and the station is:

d = 90 + 45t

The distance between the van and the station is:

d = 54t

When the distances are equal:

54t = 90 + 45t

9t = 90

t = 10

It takes 10 hours after 8 AM for the van to catch up with the truck.  So the time would be 6 PM.

You and your friend are painting the walls in your apartment. You estimate that there is 1000 square feet of space to be painted
leva [86]
After 45 minutes you will have painted 4*45=180 square feet.

so the total number of painted area, y, is:

y=180+x*(3+4) after the 45 minutes

where x is the number of minutes AFTER THE 45 minutes:

if y is 1000 then

1000=180+x*7
820=x*7
x=117.14

so 117 minutes, or one hour and 57 minutes.

Peter has a dozen sticks of butter.He needs 1/6 of a stick to make an omelet.How many omelets can peter make
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

<em>72 omelets</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

If the whole stick of butter is cut into 6 pieces, and you can use one of those 6 pieces of butter per omelet, you can make 6 omelets with one stick of butter. Now, you have 12 sticks of butter, and you can make 6 omelets with each. 12 x 6= 72. I believe u can make 72 omelets in all.

Hope this helps dear!!
