Answer:
It took Jen 4 hours to catch up with Laura
Step-by-step explanation:
Gaining speed 45-30= 15 mph
Laura's head start 30×2=60 miles
Time for Jen to catch up 60÷15= 4 hours
In other words
30(t+2)= 45t
30t+60= 45t
60=45t-30t
60= 15t
t=4 hours
Answer:
Yes.
Step-by-step explanation:
22.75 + 15.2 =?
22+15= 37
.75 +.2 = .95
37+.95 = 37.95
The two friends will be 150 miles apart, when the sum of the distances covered by the them is 150 miles.
distance = speed x time.
Let the time covered when they are 150 miles apart be x, then:
40x + 35x = 150
75x = 150
x = 150/75 = 2.
Therefore, the two friends will be 150 miles apart in 2 hours.
