Answer:
3 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent Alysha's time to drive home from the market.
Speed and time are inversely proportional to each other (for the same distance), so we have ...
(walking speed)(walking time) = (driving speed)(driving time)
5(x +21) = (8·5)(x)
x +21 = 8x . . . . . . . . . divide by 5
21 = 7x . . . . . . . . subtract x
3 = x . . . . . . .divide by 7
It takes Alysha 3 minutes to drive home from the market.
Well, we know perimeter is just adding all the lengths together.
And we already know 2 of the lengths, so we know the rest. 11 1/2 is the same as the opposite side, and 6 1/3 is the same as the opposite side.
So the sides are 6 1/3, 6 1/3, 11 1/2, 11 1/2.
Add them up:
6 1/3 + 6 1/3 + 11 1/2 + 11 1/2.
Improper fractions:
19/3 + 19/3 + 23/2 + 23/2.
Common denominator, (6):
38/6 + 38/6 + 69/6 + 69/6 = 214/6.
Simplify:
214/6 = 35 2/3
Answer:
The total allowance is $18.5, and the amount spent daily is $3.2
Step-by-step explanation:
let T and x represent the total allowance and the amount spent daily respectively.
It was started that the amount remaining after 2 days is $12.10 , which implies the person has spend an equal amount for 2 days
T - 2x =12.10 (equation 1)
It was started that the amount remaining after 5 days is $2.50 , which also implies the person has spend an equal amount for 5 days
T - 5x =2.5 (equation 2)
subtract equation 2 from 1
T - 2x -( T - 5x ) = 12.10 -2.5
T - 2x -T + 5x = 9.6
3x =9.6
Divide both side by 3
x = 9.6/3 =3.2
from equation 1
T - 2x =12.10
T = 12.10 + 2x = 12.10 + 2*3.2
= 12.10 + 6.4 = 18.5
