Answer:

<u>Tony biked 1 hour 40 minutes and run 3 hours 20 minutes.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

How long did Tony speed on his bike?

Let s to be Tony's running speed, then 8s is Tony's biking speed

Let's recall that Time = Distance/Speed

Bike time + Running time = 5 hrs

Replacing with the real values, we have:

60/8s + 15/s = 5

8s as Lowest Common Denominator

60 + 8 * 15 = 5 * 8s

60 + 120 = 40s

-40s = -180

s = -180-40

s = 4.5 ⇒ 8s = 36

Tony run at 4.5 mph and biked at 36 mph

Now, we can calculate the time, this way:

Bike time = Bike distance/Bike speed

Replacing with the real values, we have:

Bike time = 60/36

Bike time = 5/3 (Dividing by 12)

5/3 hours * 60 = 100 minutes or 1 hour 40 minutes

Running time = 5 hours - 1 hour 40 minutes = 3 hours 20 minutes

<u>Tony biked 1 hour 40 minutes and run 3 hours 20 minutes.</u>

Answer:

T = 530N + 250

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first plan, Heather will deposit $250 and then save $135 per month.

So, that is 250 + (135 x N) where N is the number of months she saves the $135.

So if it is for 3months,

We will have:

t¹ = 135N + 250

= 250 + (135 x 3)

= 250 + 405

= $655

For the second plan, there is no initial deposit, but she will save $395 per month.

That is 395 x N

t² = 395N

For 3months, we have 395 x 3 = $1185

Therefore the total for both plans in 3months = 655 + 1185 = $1840

Equation relating T to N

T = t¹ + t²

T = (135N + 250) + 395N

T = 135N + 250 + 395N

T = 530N + 250
