Answer:

\boxed{\text{0.675 h}}

Step-by-step explanation:

18 min = 0.3 h

Car 1 started 0.3 h before Car 2.

  Let t = time of Car 2. Then

t + 0.3 = time of Car 1

Distance = speed × time, and both cars travel the same distance. Then

\begin{array}{rcl}45(t + 0.3) & = & 65t\\45t + 13.5 & = & 65t\\20t & = & 13.5\\t & = & \textbf{0.675 h}\\\end{array}\\\text{Car will overtake Car 1 in } \boxed{\textbf{0.675 h}}

Check:

\begin{array}{rcl}45(0.675 + 0.3) & = & 65 \times 0.675\\45 \times 0.975 & = & 43.875\\43.875 & = & 43.875\\\end{array}

OK.

Answer:

Car2 overtakes Car1 after 0.675 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we must know that

Speed = distance / time

Speed_car1 = 45 mph = distance_car1/ time_1

Speed_car2= 65 mph = distance_car2/ time_2

We know that

time1 - time2 = 18 minutes = 0.3 h

And, at the time of the overtake, both cars will have traveled the same distance.

So,

distance_car1 = 45 mph * time1 = distance_car2 = 65 mph * time2

time1 / time2 = 65/45

time1 = 1.444*time2

Then,

1.444*time2- time2 =  0.3 h

time2 = 0.675 h

time1 = 0.975 h

Car2 overtakes Car1 after 0.675 hours

Solve the equation<br> 9x² – 29x – 28 = 0<br> Give your answers to 2 decimal places when appropriate
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

x = 4 or x = 0.78

Step-by-step explanation:

9x² – 29x – 28 = 0

2 roots: x = ((-(-29) ± √(-29)² - 4 x 9 x (-28)) / (2 x 9)

               = (29 ± √841 + 1008) / 18

               = (29 ± 43) /18

x = 72 /18 = 4     or

x = -14 /18 = - 0.78

svetoff [14.1K]
This can be done easily in a few ways. One, you could do equivelent fractions as this. 16 percent is the same as 16 over 100, or, 16/100, 100 being the total with an = sign with X over 550, or, X/550. you can multiply 16 by 500 and divide by 100 to get $88. Or you could do it my way, (prefered way). take the $550, divide it by 100, then multiply by 16 and get $88. either way you do this, you take away the $88 from $550 and get the sale price of [Drumroll please...]
