Answer:

5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

A motorcycle will complete the 540 mile trip in 11.25 hours

And the car will complete it 2.25 hours less, i.e 11.25 -2,25 = 9 hours.

then,

Speed of the car:

60t + 48t = 540

108t = 540


If you Divide both sides by 108 we get t = 5

So, they will meet in 5 hours,

gpm = 29.7 \times  {d}^{2}  \times  \sqrt{np}
this formula is used to determine gpm (gallons per minute) of flow with a known hose diameter (d) and nozzle pressure (np). The constant (29.7) is consistent when figuring flow with in gallons with a know pressure expressed in psi (pounds per square inch).

Scenario example: a firefighter is using a handline to fight fire with an 1 3/4 inch line with a nozzle pressure of 100 psi. How much water is the firefighter flowing when fighting fire?

gpm = 29.7 \times  {1.75}^{2}  \times  \sqrt{100}

just olya [345]

Answer:

$8.40

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating simple interest is

principal * interest rate * time .

Plugging 140 into the principal, or starting value, 3% as the interest rate, and 2 (years) for the time, we get 140*0.03*2 = 8.4, or $8.40 as our answer. Note that 3% turned into 0.03 as turning a percentage into a decimal requires us to divide the decimal by 100
