Two cars traveled equal distances in different amounts of time. Car A traveled the distance in 2.4 h, and Car B traveled the dis

tance in 4 h. Car A traveled 22 mph faster than Car B. How fast did Car A travel? (The formula R⋅T=D , where R is the rate of speed, T is the time, and D is the distance can be used.) Enter your answer in the box.

We let x the distance traveled by Car A and y the distance traveled by car B. The speed of car A can be represented as x/2.4 and for Car B is y/4. From the statement given, we can write an equation relating the speed of both cars.


x/2.4 = 22 + y/4


Since y = x, then:



x/2.4 = 22 + x/4


Solving for x, we obtain:


x= 132 meters traveled by both cars


Therefore, Car A has a speed of 55 mph.

The total surface area of a cuboid is 112cm^2. find the value of x. values given: 10cm and 2cm.
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

x= 5.6

Step-by-step explanation:

we will need to put the information we currently have into an equation:

10•2•x= 112

then multiply 10•2 which equals 20...then the equation wil turn out like this:

20•x=112

now you will isolate the x... but how?? dividing 20 by itslef.. cancelling it out, and if you do one thing to the other side of the equation, you have to do it to the other...

20/20•x=112/20

you will end up with x= 122/20

you can use a calculator for this step, but  to practice long division... (check the screen shot thingie)

hope this helped !! ^^
