Jose left the White House and drove toward the recycling plant at an average speed of 40 km/h. Rob left some time later driving

in the same direction at an average speed of 48 km/h. After driving for five hours Rob caught up with Jose. How long did Jose drive before Rob caught up?

Let x represent Jose's drived distance and y represent Rob's.
So what you need to do is to solve the equation:
40x=48*5
40x=240
x=240/40=6

So Jose drove for 6 hours before Rob caught him.

An exterior angle of a triangle equals _______ minus the adjacent interior angle.
insens350 [35]
As isosceles triangle has two congruent sides with a third side 
<span>that is the base. </span>

<span>A base angle of an isosceles triangle is one of the angles formed by </span>
<span>the base and another side. Base angles are equal because of the </span>
<span>definition of an isosceles triangle. </span>

<span>A picture would probably help here: </span>

<span>._______________. </span>
<span>B C </span>
<span>base </span>
<span>ABC is the isosceles triangle. AB is congruent to AC. Angle ABC </span>
<span>is congruent to angle ACB. These are the base angles. </span>
<span>Triangle is a convex polygon with three segments joining three non-collinear points. Each of the three segments is called a side, and each of the three non-collinear points is called a vertex. </span>
<span>Triangles can be categorized by the number of congruent sides they have. For instance, a triangle with no congruent sides is a scalene triangle; a triangle with two congruent sides is an isosceles triangle; a triangle with three congruent sides is an equilateral triangle. </span>
<span>Triangles can also be categorized by their angles. For instance, a triangle with three acute interior angles is an acute triangle; a triangle with one obtuse interior angle is an obtuse triangle; a triangle with one right interior angle is a right triangle; a triangle with three congruent interior angles is an equiangular triangle. </span>
<span>One property of a triangle is that the sum of the measures of the three interior angles is always 180 degrees (or pi radians). In addition, the exterior angle of a triangle is the supplement of the adjacent interior angle. The measure of the exterior angle is also the sum of the measures of the two remote interior angles.</span>

Frankie and Maria paid to get into the carnival, and they had to pay a certain amount per game. Frankie played 5 games and spent
Natali [406]

Answer:

It cost $8 per person to get into the carnival

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the entry cost be y

Let Cost of 1 game be x

Cost of 5 games = 5x

Cost of 12 games = 12x

Frankie played 5 games and spent $15.50 altogether.

So, 5x+y=15.50 --- A

Maria played 12 games and spent $26 altogether.

So, 12x+y=26 -- B

Plot the lines

5x+y=15.50 --- Black color

12x+y=26  --- Red color

Intersection point provides the solution

(x,y)=(1.5,8)

So, it cost $8 per person to get into the carnival
