Answer:

2hrs 40 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for distance is expressed as:

d=st, s=speed, t=time

#The time taken to run:

d=st\\\\t=d/s\\\\t_r=d/8

#The time taken to walk:

d=st\\\\t=d/s\\\\t_w=d/2

#Since the distances are the same:

d_r=8t_r,d_w=2t_w\\\\8t_r=2t_w\\\\t_r+t_w=4->t_w=4-t_r\\\\\therefore8t_r=2(4-t_r)\\\\8t_r=8-2t_r\\\\t_r=1\frac{1}{3} \hrs\\\\t_w=4-1\frac{1}{3}=2\frac{2}{3}\ hrs

Hence, Dana spends 2hrs 40 minutes walking back

Answer:

<h2>30</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>to understand the steps</h3><h3>you need to know about:</h3>
  • system of linear equation
  • word problems
  • PEMDAS

first step

let's create the equation word problem

<h3>my mother's current age is four times the sum of the ages of my two sisters. After 5 years, my mother's age will be double the sum of the ages of my two sisters. What is the current age of my mother? (imaginary problem)</h3>

let's solve

let my mother's and sister's age be x and y respectively

according to the first condition,x=4y....(I)

according to the 2nd condition,x+5=2(y+5×2).....(ii)

so the system of linear equations is

x=4y

x+5=2(y+5×2)

gets from the second equation

x+5=2(y+10)

x+5=2y+20

4y+5=2y+20 (as x=4y)

2y=15

y=7.5

so the age of mother is

x=4.(7.5)

x=30

If I'm wrong plz correct me so I can review
creativ13 [48]

check the picture below.

so the area of the rectangle is x*y.

the area of the triangle is (1/2)(w)(z).

if we subtract the area of the triangle, from the containing rectangle, we're in effect making a whole in the rectangle, as you see there in lower-right corner.

\bf \stackrel{rectangle}{x\cdot y}~~-~~\stackrel{triangle}{\cfrac{1}{2}wz}

Type of Candy and Price per Ounce:
vredina [299]

Answer:

A= $0.60

B= $5.62

Step-by-step explanation:

A: If you do 1.5*0.10, the product will be 0.15. If you do 1.5*0.50, the product would be 0.75. So, 0.75-0.15 is 0.6.

B: 2.5*0.50 is 1.25 and 1.25*0.10 is 0.125. So, if you add the products together, you would get 1.375 but because it's money, you have to round it to $1.38 and $7-$1.38 is $5.62.
