Let’s call the speed of the slower car S, then the speed of the other is S+10mph.
At 5pm they have been travelling for 3 hours. The slower car travels a distance 3S and the faster one 3(S+10).
But the two distances must add up to 240 miles so 3S+3(S+10)=240, 3S+3S+30=240, 6S=210, S=35 mph. The faster car’s speed is 45mph. We can see that 3S is the same distance as 3x, so x=S=35 mph, and the distance the faster car travels is 3×45=135 miles.
The slope is the rate
words per minute
we can do
540 words in 3 minutes
divide by 3
180 words in 1 minute
thea=180wpm
elanor=225wpm
elanor>thea
and 225*2=450
answers are
Thea reads 180 words per minute.
Eleanor reads 450 words every 2 minutes.
After 1 hour of reading, Eleanor reads more words than Thea.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
First create an equation in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b. To do this, find the rate of change or slope (m), and the y-intercept (b).
Using two pairs, (-7, -3) and (-8, -4),

m = 1
To find b, substitute m = 1, x = -7 and y = -3 into y = mx + b.
Thus:
-3 = (1)(-7) + b
-3 = -7 + b
-3 + 7 = b
4 = b
b = 4.
Replace y with f(x), m with 1 and b with 4 in y = mx + b.
The function would be:

Answer: 0
Explanation:
0 to the 5th power means 0 five times so
0 x 0 x 0 x 0 x 0
=0
Answer: He played a total of 104 chess games.
Step-by-step explanation:
9:4
72:x
9:4 = 72:x
72 * 4 = 288
288/9 = 32
x = 32
32 + 72 = 104
