Two pedestrians simultaneously left two villages 27 km apart and walked toward each other. the first one walked 4 km per hour, a

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Step 1: Assign variable for the unknown that you need to find.

Let ' t ' be the number of hours it took for the pedestrians to meet.

Step 2: List the give details

Speed of first pedestrian = 4 km/hr.

Speed of second pedestrian = 6 km/hr.

Distance between two pedestrians = 27 km.

Step 3: Set up an equation

The relationship between speed, distance and time is given below:

$Distance= \; Rate \times Time$

The first one walked 4 km per hour, distance traveled by first pedestrian is given below:

$Distance_{1^{st} \; pedestrian} \; = \; 4t\\\\Distance_{2^{nd} \; pedestrian} \; = \; 6t$

Two pedestrians simultaneously left two villages 27 km apart and walked toward each other.

$Distance_{1^{st} \; pedestrian} +Distance_{2^{nd} \; pedestrian} =27\\\\4t+6t=27\\Combine \; Like \; Terms\\\\10t=27\\Dividing \; 10 \; on \; both \; sides\\\\ \frac{10t}{10} = \frac{27}{10} \\Simplifying \; fraction \; on \; both \; sides\\\\t=2.7 \; hours$

Conclusion:

The pedestrian meet after 2.7 hours.

HELP ME PLEASE ASAP!!!!!: Stock worth $60 a share dropped in value by 20% on Monday. Then, it dropped again by $10 the next Tues

vredina [299]

Answer:

$58.9

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we're going to go step by step to get the final price of the share.

We know that the stock started off as $60 per share, so that would be our starting value.

The stock dropped by 20%, so let's calculate the drop in price.

60 • 0.20 = 12

60 - 12 = 48

On Monday, the value of the stock was $48

On Tuesday, the stock dropped by $10, so calculate that drop as well

48 - 10 = 38

On Tuesday, the stock value is at $38

The stock increased by 55%, so we need to calculate the increase.

38 • 1.55 = 58.9

This means that the final price of the share was $58.9
