Answer:

225 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a tour bus averaged 50 miles per hours  between two cities on the first leg of  a trip and 45 miles per hour on the  return trip.

Let the distance be x.  Then we get time taken for to trip would be

\frac{distance}{time} = hours

For return trip time taken = \frac{x}{45}

The difference in time is 1 hour

\frac{x}{45}-\frac{x}{50}=1\\\frac{10x-9x}{450} =1\\x=450

Hence answer is 450 miles

Verify:

Going time=\frac{450}{50} =9 hrs

Return time = \frac{450}{45} =10 hrs

i.e. 1 hour more verified

Answer:

The distance between the cities is 50*4.5 = 225 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "t" be the time spent on the first leg at the average speed of 50 miles per hour.

Then (t+0.5) is the time spent on the returning trip at the average speed of 45 miles per hour.

Since the distance is the same in both directions, you have an equation

50*t = 45*(t+0.5).

Simplify and solve it for "t".

50t = 45t + 22.5,

5t = 22.5

Divide both sides by 5

t = 22.5/5

= 4.5.

Thus we found the time spent at the speed 50 mph. It is 4.5 hours.

Thus the distance between the cities is 50*4.5 = 225 miles

I am struggling with triangles missing angles with the formula if you could explain your answer step by step that would be great
Alborosie

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3 angles of all triangles add up to 180 degrees.

An isosceles triangle has 2 of its angles equal.

So if one of the angles is 130 degrees then there cant be another one of 130 degrees as that would make 260 degrees.

So the other 2 angles are equal and their measure is (180 - 130) / 2

= 50 / 2

= 25 degrees.

The 2 equal angles are both 25 degrees.

OK so I need to know what 96÷6 is and I know it is 16 but I need to know how to do it in long division can anyone help me
algol13

Answer:

   16

 ____________

6| 96

  -6 |

       V

    36

  - 36

     0

6 goes into 9 one time because 9-6=3 so there is 1 six in 9. Write 1 at the top because you have 1 6.

Subtract the 6 and you get 3

Bring the 6 from 96 down

you get 36

6 goes into 36 6 times because 36-6-6-6-6-6-6=0 so write a 6 at the top and you get 16 because of the previous 1.

Subtract 36 by 36 to get 0

Hope this helps
