Answer:

21 yards in 3 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

we give tracy the head start of 12 yards

then see how much she increases in 3 seconds at every second .

one second shes at 16 yards, 2 seconds she's at 20 yards & thats all the info we need

Alice runs 7 yards per second & we give her 3 seconds & how many yards she runs every second.

one second 7 yards , 2 seconds 14 yards & 3 seconds 21 yards & its at the 3 second that Alice has passed her.

The cost of renting a bus for a field trip was split evenly among 20 students. At the last minute, 10 more students joined the t
dexar [7]

By solving a linear equation, we will see that the total cost for renting the bus is $90.

<h3>What was the total cost of renting the bus, in dollars?</h3>

Let's say that the total cost is C.

When there are 20 students, each student should pay:

p = C/20

When the other 10 students are added (for a total of 30) each student pays:

p' = C/30.

We know that the cost for each of the original 20 students decreased by $1.50, so:

p' = p - $1.50

Then we have 3 equations to work with:

p = C/20

p' = C/30.

p' = p - $1.50

Now we can replace the first and second equations into the third one:

C/30 = C/20 - $1.50

Now we can solve this linear equation for C:

C/20 - C/30 = $1.50

C*( 1/20 - 1/30) = $1.50

C*(30/600 - 20/600) = $1.50

C*(10/600) = $1.50

C*(1/60) = $1.50

C = 60*$1.50 = $90

So the total cost for renting the bus is $90.

I've had a problem similar to this before. He should start out with 0 flowers. He would have 2 flowers at the first one, so he would put one on the first grave then have one for the second. When he gets to the second, he puts down one flower and the last flower on the 3rd grave.
