In a police chase on the interstate, the suspect’s car reached a speed of 88 miles per hour for a total 15 minutes. In that time

, how many miles did the chase last? Use the formula Distance = Rate x Time. If the rate is in miles per hour, then the time must be in hours.

Answer:

22 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

time must be in hours, hence

15 minutes = \frac{15}{60} = \frac{1}{4} hour

distance = 88 × \frac{1}{4} = \frac{88}{4} = 22 miles

Answer: 22 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : In a police chase on the interstate, the suspect’s car reached a speed of 88 miles per hour for a total 15 minutes.

i.e. rate =  88 miles per hour

Time = 15 minutes

Since 1 hour = 60 minutes

Then, 15 minutes=\dfrac{15}{60}=0.25 hours

Using formula, Distance = Rate x Time.

We have ,

Distance =  88\times0.25=22\text{ miles}

Hence, the required distance = 22 miles.

In one school, a half of all students who like math like science as well. Also, in that school, a third of all students who like
Marizza181 [45]

Answer: 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

N is the total number of students

M is the number of students thta like math

S is the number of students that like science.

We know that half of the elements in M also are elements from S

And a third of the elements of S also are elements of M

And because those elements are common elements for both sets, we should have that:

M/2 = S/3

then we have that:

M = (2/3)*S

The ratio is 2/3

this means that the number of students that like math is 2/3 times the number of students that like science.

The width of a rectangle is six meters less than three times its length. If the area of the rectangle is 105 square meters. what
Kipish [7]

Answer:

length = 7 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

l = length

w = width

w = 3×l - 6

l×w = 105 m²

l×(3×l - 6) = 105

3×l² - 6×l = 105

l² - 2×l = 35

l² - 2×l - 35 = 0

solution of a squared equation is

(-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

a = 1

b = -2

c = -35

(2 ± sqrt(4 - 4×-35))/2 = (2 ± sqrt(4+140))/2 =

(2 ± sqrt(144))/2 = (2 ± 12)/2 = 1 ± 6

l1 = 1+6 = 7 meters

l2 = 1-6 = -5 meters, which did not make any sense for an actual object.

so, l = 7 meters remains.
