Answer: it will take 1.25 hours before they meet

Step-by-step explanation:

Linda is meeting Steve. Linda walks at 2.5 miles per hour.

Distance = speed × time

time = distance / speed

Let t represent the time it takes Linda to cover her distance.

Distance covered by Linda = 25×t = 2.5t miles

Steve is walking at 1.5 miles per hour.

Let t1 represent the time it takes Steve to cover his distance.

Distance covered by Steve = 1.5×t = 1.5 t1 miles.

They are 5 miles apart. It means that by the time they met, they have covered a 5 miles. Therefore

2.5t + 1.5t1 = 5

Assuming both of them spent the same time walking, it means that

t = t1

2.5t + 1.5t = 5

4t = 5

t = 5/4 = 1.25 hours

David’s bowling score is 5 less than 3 times Aaron’s score. The sum of their score is 215. Find the score of each student. Write
xenn [34]

Answer:

David's score= 160 ;  Aaron's score = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

let Aaron's score be 'x'.

so, David's score will be 3x - 5

(3x - 5) + x = 215

3x + x - 5 = 215

4x = 215 + 5

4x = 220

x = 220/4

x = 55

therefore, Aaron's score = 55

David's score is (3x - 5) = (3*55) - 5 = 165 - 5 = 160

Let x = Initial Price

If we increase x by 5%, we are adding 0.05x

Therefore, the new price = x + 0.05x = 1.05x

If the ticket has increased by £2.30, £2.30 is 5% of the initial price, or 0.05x

0.05x = 2.30

x = 2.30/0.05

x = 46

Therefore, the price of the ticket before the increase was £46

You can also check this backwards by doing 46*0.05 = 2.30
