If they meet after 8 hours, then the sum of their average speeds is 600/8=75 km per hour.  If one is 5 km per hour faster than the other, then if we set the speed of the slower man to x, we have:

2x+5=75

So:

2x=70

x=30

The fastest man is 5 km per hour faster than the slower, so he travels 35 km per hour.

Can anyone help me as soon as possible??
matrenka [14]

Answer:

X = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that we are in the presence of two similar triangles, one larger than the other. The larger triangle is AED, and the smaller one is ACB.

Since there are similar triangles, we can write a proportionality between their known sides:

\frac{side\,\,AD}{side\,\,AB} =\frac{side\,\,ED}{side \,\,CB}

notice that AD = x + 6

AB = x

ED = 11

CB = 8

So now we can re-write the proportion and solve it for the unknown "x":

\frac{side\,\,AD}{side\,\,AB} =\frac{side\,\,ED}{side \,\,CB} \\\\\frac{x+6}{x} =\frac{11}{8} \\8\,(x+6)=11\,x\\8\,x\,+\,48=11\,x\\48=11\,x-8\,x\\48=3\,x\\x=\frac{48}{3} \\x=16

What is the price elasticity of the demand for skateboards, when A shop owner wants to know what the effect would be of increasi
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer: The price elasticity of the demand for skateboards = 0.6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Original price of skate boards = $200

Quantity of skate board = 10

New price of skate boards = $300

Quantity of skate board = 7

Since we know that "Price of commodity is inversely related to quantity demanded."

So, price elasticity of demand is given by

e_d=\frac{\Delta q}{\Delta p}\times \frac{P}{Q}\\\\e_d=\frac{10-7}{300-200}\times \frac{200}{10}\\\\e_d=\frac{3}{100}\times 20\\\\e_d=\frac{3}{5}=0.6

Hence, the price elasticity of the demand for skateboards = 0.6.
