Answer:

The teacher can purchase 61 pencils with $5

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simple proportion problem. It can be solved by pure logic reasoning without any formulas

It a dozen pencils cost $0.97, each pencil cost $0.97/12=0.08083

With $5 she will be able to purchase 5/0.08083=61.85 pencils

We must round to the nearest lower integer

The teacher can purchase 61 pencils with $5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

By the Pythagorean Theorem we know

h^2=x^2+y^2 (where h is the hypotenuse and x and y are sides of a right triangle)

w^2+18^2=30^2

w^2=30^2-18^2

w^2=900-324

w^2=576

Frank started out in his car travelling 45 mph. When Frank was 1/3 miles away, Daniel started out from the same point at 50 mph
Anna007 [38]

Time taken by Daniel to catch up with Frank is 4 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is on relative speed; speed of a moving object with respect to another.

The two cars are travelling in the same direction at different speeds thus;

Relative speed = speed of Daniel - speed of Frank = 50-45= 5 mph

The time which the two meet = distance/ relative speed

Distance = 1/3 miles, which equals 0.33 miles

Time taken by Daniel to catch up with Frank is = 0.33/5 =0.066 hours = 4 minutes.
