We need to do a system of equations here.

x + y = 275 (if you travel <em>x</em> km by bike and <em>y </em>km by bus, then you travel 275 km as given in the problem)
y = x + 55 (the problem stated that they were bussed (y) the amount they biked plus 55 more km (x + 55))

The second equation is already solved for y. So, we can plug it in to the first equation.

x + (x + 55) = 275
2x + 55 = 275 [combine x terms]
2x = 220 [subtract 55 from both sides]
x = 110 [divide by 2 to isolate x and solve for it]

Now we know that x is 110, the distance they traveled by bike.
And that's what we needed to answer the problem!

(time limit!) what is the volume below?<br><br>A) 112 <br>B) 224 <br>C) 784 <br>D) 896
Radda [10]
To find a volume of a cylinder we use the following formula:
v = \pi {r}^{2} h
Plug in the values:

v = \pi \times  {8}^{2}  \times 14
Take the square:
v = \pi \times 64 \times 14
Multiply the numbers:
v =896 \pi {m}^{2}

ser-zykov [4K]

The sale price S (in dollars) of an item is given by the formula

S=L−rL , where L is the list price (in dollars) and r is the discount rate.

Since, S = L -rL

rL = L -S

r = \frac{L-S}{L}

r = 1-\frac{S}{L}

Since, the listed price of the shirt is $30, we have to find the discount rate.

Therefore, r = 1-\frac{S}{30} is the discount rate.
