Answer:

The speed of car B is 50 mile per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The Distance travel by car A = 175 miles

The Distance travel by car B = 125 miles

The Time taken by both car A and B is same = T hours

Let The speed of car B = S mile per hour

So, The speed of car A = ( S + 20 ) mile per hour

Now, Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed}

So , For Car A ,

T = \frac{175}{(S + 20 )}

For Car B ,

T = \frac{125}{(S}

So, \frac{175}{(S + 20 )}  = \frac{125}{(S}

Or, 175 × S = 125 × ( S + 20 )

Or, 175 S - 125 S = 125 × 20

Or, 50 S = 2500

∴  S = \frac{2500}{(50}

I.e S = 50 mph

And S + 20 = 50 + 20 = 70 mph

The speed of car A = 70 mph

The speed of car B = 50 mph

Hence The speed of car B is 50 mile per hour  Answer

A rectangular park is 150 yards on one side and 125 yards on the other.If someone wanted to walk 1,000,000 yards, how many times
tankabanditka [31]
The perimeter of the park is (125+150)*2=550 yards.  Then, to walk a million years, you would need to walk 1000000/550=1818.18 perimeters.  Since we're looking for the amount of times we have to walk around the park fully to hit 1,000,000 yards, though, we must round up (even though normally with a decimal of .18 we'd round down) to 1819 times.
