Let the distance be x miles

Time = Distance / speed

Time taken by Mike to go to his friend's house = x / 40 hours

Time taken by him to return = x / 45 hours

Total time = x / 40 + x / 45 = 4 hours

= 9x + 8x = 1440 miles

17x = 1440

= x = 1440 ÷ 7

= x = 84.706

Time taken to return home = 84.706 /45= 1.882 hours .

Therefore , Mike took 1.882 hours to reach home .

How many ounces are in 2 1/4 pounds?
Verdich [7]

Answer:

36 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

1 lb = 16oz

So just multiply 2 lb by 16 to get 32.

Then you can multiply 16 by 0.25 (a.k.a 1/4) OR divide 16 by 4

You get 4 ounces

Finally, add 32 and 4 to get your total of 36 ounces.

Steve travels 2 times as fast as Jill. Traveling in opposite directions, they are 120 miles apart after 2.5 hours. Find their ra
Tcecarenko [31]

let's recall that d = rt, distance = rate * time.

we know that Steve is twice as fast as Jill, so say if Jill has a speed or rate of "r", then Steve is traveling at 2r fast, now we know they both in opposite directions have covered a total of 120 miles, so if Jill covered "d" miles then Steve covered 120 -d, check the picture below.

\begin{array}{lcccl} &\stackrel{miles}{distance}&\stackrel{mph}{rate}&\stackrel{hours}{time}\\ \cline{2-4}&\\ Jill&d&r&2.5\\ Steve&120-d&2r&2.5 \end{array}~\hfill \begin{cases} d=2.5r\\[2em] 120-d=5r \end{cases} \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{substituting on the 2nd equation}}{120-2.5r=5r\implies 120=7.5r}\implies \cfrac{120}{7.5}=r\implies \stackrel{Jill's}{16=r}~\hfill \stackrel{Steve's}{32}

Plz need asap!!!!!!!!!
joja [24]

OK so if 70% of students in 8th grade have siblings and 112 8th graders have siblings, then:

0.7(total 8th graders) = 112

total 8th graders = 112/0.7

total 8th graders = 160


And since the number of 8th graders is 5/6 the size of the 7th grade class:

5/6(7th grade class) = 160

5(7th grade class) = 960

7th grade class = 192.


The correct answer is D) 192.


Hope this helps

cheers,

Brian
