Time = Distance/Speed

Let d represent the distance from home to the resort in miles.
Time To Resort = d/48
Time To Home = d/40
Total Time = Time To Resort + Time To Home
11 = d/48 +d/40 . . . . . . . . . . substitute known values & expressions
.. = d*(40 +48)/(40*48) . . . . add fractions
.. = d*11/240 . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
11*(240/11) = d . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by the inverse of the coefficient of d
240 = d

The Gomez family traveled 240 miles from their house to the resort.

What is the perimeter of the rectangle? Write your answer in scientific notation. The area is 2.76 x 10 pw12
MrRa [10]
We know that
area of a rectangle=length*width
length=area/width
area=2.76 x 10^12 units²<span>
width=4.6 x 10</span><span>^5 units
</span>length=2.76 x 10^12/4.6 x 10^5 ------> 6 x 10^6 units

perimeter of a rectangle=2*[length+width]
width=4.6 x 10^5 units----> is equal to 0.46 x 10^6 units
length=6 x 10^6 units

perimeter of a rectangle=2*[6x10^6+0.46x10^6]----> 12.92 x 10^6 units

the answer is
12.92 x 10^6 units

Product A sells 3.5 times more than Product B. Product B sells 40% less than Product C. Product C sold 39,000 units this month.
Rashid [163]

Answer:

81,900 units of Product A

Step-by-step explanation:

Product C:  39,000

Product B:  [39,000 - (39000 x .40)] = 39,000 - 15,600 → 23,400

Product A:  23,400 x 3.5 = 81,900

Triangle BCD is similar to triangle ACE. If the triangles are isosceles, what is the length of AB?
zzz [600]

\frac{2.75}{22}  =  \frac{5}{ac}  \\ ac = 5 \div ( \frac{2.75}{22} )  = 40 \\ ab = 40 - 5 = 35
