Dale drove to the mountains last weekend. there was heavy traffic on the way there, and the trip took 7 hours. when dale drove home, there was no traffic and the trip only took 5 hours. if his average rate was 18 miles per hour faster on the trip home, how far away does dale live from the mountains? do not do any rounding.

Answer:

Dale live 315 miles from the mountains

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y be the speed  of Dale to the mountains

Time taken by Dale to the mountains=7 hrs

Therefore distance covered by dale to the mountain = speed × time = 7y ......eqn 1

Time taken by Dale back home = 5hours

Since it speed increased by 18 miles per hour back home it speed = y+18

So distance traveled home =speed × time = (y+18)5 ...... eqn 2

Since distance cover is same in both the eqn 1 and eqn 2.

Eqn 1 = eqn 2

7y = (y+18)5

7y = 5y + 90

7y - 5y = 90 (collection like terms)

2y = 90

Y = 45

Substitute for y in eqn 1 to get distance away from mountain

= 7y eqn 1

= 7×45

= 315 miles.

∴ Dale leave 315 miles from the mountains

The UAE Hope Probe is between 22,000 Km and 44,000 KM away from mars. This means its between _____________m and ______________m.
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

This means it is between 22000000 m and 44000000 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, the UAE Hope Pobe is between 22 000 km and 44 000 km away from Mars.

Since,

1 000 m = 1 km

Then,

22 000 km = 22 000 x 1000 m

                   = 22000000 m

also,

44000 km = 44000 x 1000 m

                  = 44000000 m

Therefore, the Probe is between 22000000 m and 44000000 m.

Pablo built a large wooden storage box. The box was in the shape of a rectangular prism, as shown below. He covered all the side
Naily [24]

The cost of wallpaper used to cover all sides of the storage box is given by $3 per square foot

<h3>Cost of wallpaper per square foot</h3>

  • length = 9 ft
  • Width = 8 ft
  • Height = 5 ft

Surface area of a box = 2(lh + wh + lw)

= 2(9×5 + 8×5 + 9×8)

= 2(45 + 40 + 72)

= 2(157)

= 314 square foot

  • Total cost of wallpaper = $942

Cost of wallpaper per square foot = $942 ÷ 314 square foot

= $3 per square foot
