The first car is going 60 miles per hour because if the second car is going at 45 mph, after 4 hours it has already travelled 180 miles. In order for both cars to meet from a total distance of 420 miles, the first car has to travel 420 miles - 180 miles meaning that the first car travelled 240 miles. When you look back at how it took 4 hours for both cars to meet each other, this also means that the first car traveled 4 hours. So the car traveled 240 miles in 4 hours meaning that it went 240miles/4hours or 60mph.

Answer:

None

Step-by-step explanation:

If 1/3 is left every hour  then it would  then after 3 hours wouldn't it be gone? Most would assume if only a third of the water is left every hour then after three hours there would be either of two answers if the question was written correctly: one third because they refilled it on the 2nd hour or none because it wouldn't even last two hours

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is x−2y=12.
seraphim [82]

Answer:

-2/x

Step-by-step explanation:

simplified is y = -x/2 - 6

Perpendicular slopes are just reciprocals of the original slope, so just flipp the original slope around to be the complete opposite.

Example if slope= -2, the reciprocal= -1/2

Just flip the numerator with the denominator for perpendicular slope
