It takes Lucas 3 hours to cycle from his home to his friend’s village:
3 hours • (a certain speed) = distance in miles
If he travels 5mph slower, it will take him 1.5 hours longer:
4.5 hours • (the same speed - 5mph) = the same distance in miles
Equation:
4.5 • (x - 5) = 3x
4.5x - 22.5 = 3x
1.5x = 22.5
x (speed) = 15mph
Distance between Lucas’ house and his friend’s village:
3hours • 15mph = 45 miles
OR
4.5hours • (15mph - 5mph) = 45 miles
The answer would be the second choice, or B. interrupt the speaker to make sure he or she knows you don't agree with their point of view.
Answer:
90
Explanation:
So it is asking 100 times so that means it is asking for which is the greatest interval so 90 would be the right answer.
Odd. Hence +1
r

1
is even, and one of
p
and
q
must be 2
2
. We may assume that =2
p
=
2
. Then we get 2=+1

q
=
r
+
1
and
8+22=2+1=(+1)(−1)+2=2(2−2)+2,

. This has =3
q

In conclusion, there are two solutions: (,,)=(2,3,5)
(

=

and (,,)=(3,2,5)
(

=
