Y= 360.5(1+0.03)^1
y= 360.5(1.03)^1
y= 360.5(1.03)
y= 371.315
y= 371.32
Answer:
Rate of slower bus; 90 km/h
Rate of faster bus; 102 km/b
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that formula do distance is;
Distance = speed/time
We are told that One bus travels 12h slower than the other.
Let speed of slower bus be x.
Thus;
Speed of faster bus = x + 12
Speed of slower bus = x
After 3 hours, distance by faster bus = 3(x + 12)
Speed of slower bus = 3x
Since the towns are 576 km apart, then;
3(x + 12) + 3x = 576
Divide through by 3 to get;
x + 12 + x = 192
2x + 12 = 192
2x = 192 - 12
2x = 180
x = 180/2
x = 90 km/h
Faster bus speed = 90 + 12 = 102 km/h
Step 1: Add 3 to both sides.
2x-3+3=7+3
2x=10
Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.
2x/2=10/2
x=5
