Speed=distance / time; ⇒distance=speed *  time
Distance traveled by Ricardo
Distance (Ricardo)= (3 ft / s) * 15s+3 ft/s * time=45 ft+3 ft/s*t=45+3t

Distance traveled by John:
Distance(John)=(4 ft/s) * time=4t

Distance traveled by Ricardo=Distance traveled by John
3t+45=4t

Answer: D.  3t+45=4t

Use the Pythagorean Theorem:
a^2 + b^2= c^2

a= one side= 68 mi
b= second side= 80 mi
c= hypotenuse= Greenville to Columbia mi


a^2 + b^2= c^2

68^2 + 80^2= c^2
square each number

4,624 + 6,400= c^2

11,024= c^2
take square root of both sides

104.995 mi= c


ANSWER: The distance from Greenville to Columbia is 104.995 miles (rounded to 105 miles).

Hope this helps! :)
