Answer:

It takes Cheryl 0.5 hour (or 30 minutes) to catch Bob.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Bob:</u>

rate = 10 mph

time = t

distance =10t miles

<u>Cheryl:</u>

rate = 25 mph

time = t - 0.75 hours

distance =25(t-0.75) miles

If Cheryl catchs up to Bob, then their distances are the same:

10t=25(t-0.75)\\ \\10t=25t-18.75\\ \\10t-25t=-18.75\\ \\-15t=-18.75\\ \\15t=18.75\\ \\t=1.25

It takes Cheryl 1.25 - 0.75 = 0.5 hour (or 30 minutes) to catch Bob.

When she subtracts 4 from both sides, Startfraction one-half EndFraction x equals negative StartFraction one-half EndFraction x.
timama [110]

The value of x in the equation 1/2x = -1/2x when 4 is subtracted from both sides is 0(not defined)

Subtraction of fraction

Startfraction one-half EndFraction x equals negative StartFraction one-half EndFraction

1/2x = -1/2x

  • Subtract 4 from both sides

1/2x - 4 = -1/2x - 4

(x-8) / 2 = (-x-8) / 2

(x - 8) / 2 = (-x-8) / 2

  • cross product

2(x - 8) = 2(-x - 8)

2x - 16 = -2x - 16

2x + 2x = -16 + 16

4x = 0
