Answer:
-11/12
Step-by-step explanation:
![\frac{5}{8}+\frac{3}{4}=\frac{5}{8}+\frac{6}{8}=\frac{11}{8} \\ \\ -\frac{2}{3}-\frac{5}{6}=-\frac{4}{6}-\frac{5}{6}=-\frac{9}{6}=-\frac{3}{2} \\ \\ \frac{11/8}{-3/2}=\frac{22/8}{-3}=-\frac{22}{24}=-\frac{11}{12}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B8%7D%2B%5Cfrac%7B3%7D%7B4%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B8%7D%2B%5Cfrac%7B6%7D%7B8%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B11%7D%7B8%7D%20%5C%5C%20%5C%5C%20-%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D-%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B6%7D%3D-%5Cfrac%7B4%7D%7B6%7D-%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B6%7D%3D-%5Cfrac%7B9%7D%7B6%7D%3D-%5Cfrac%7B3%7D%7B2%7D%20%5C%5C%20%5C%5C%20%5Cfrac%7B11%2F8%7D%7B-3%2F2%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B22%2F8%7D%7B-3%7D%3D-%5Cfrac%7B22%7D%7B24%7D%3D-%5Cfrac%7B11%7D%7B12%7D)
In interval notation it should be [6, ∞)
Part A:
We see that this pair of equations has 1 solution. On a graph, the solutions of 2 (or more) lines is where the lines intersect. In this case, since these lines intersect 1 time, they have 1 solution.
Part B:
As previously mentioned, the solutions of multiple lines is where the lines intersect. In this case, since they intersect at (4,4), that is the solution.
Answer: Approximately 4.7 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
He rode the bicycle for some time before it broke down and he walked the remaining distance. This means that Jim covered a total of 165 miles by riding at a speed of 35 miles per hour and walking at a speed of 3 miles per hour.
Let x = the distance covered by riding the bicycle.
Let y = the distance covered by walking.
Time = distance /speed
Time he used in riding would be x/35
Time he used in walking would be y/3
Since the entire trip took 7 hours,
x/35 + y/3 = 7
3x + 35y = 735 - - - - - - - - 1
Total miles covered is 165. Therefore,
x + y = 165 - - - - - - - - -- - -2
Substituting x = 165-y into equation 1, it becomes
3(165-y) + 35y = 735
495-3y + 35y = 735
-3y + 135y = 735-495
132y = 240
y = 240/132
y = 1.81m
x = 165 - 1.81 = 163.19
Amount of time that he spent on the bicycle will be
x/35 = 163.19/35
= 4.66
Approximately 4.7 hours.
