Let n = minutes since 12:00 pm when Malory catches up to Dori.
Dori travels
(50 steps/min)*(n minutes) = 50n steps
Malory begins walking at 12:20 pm, so she walks for (n - 20) minutes. She travels
(90 steps/min)*(n - 20 min) = 90n - 1800 steps
Equate the steps traveled by Dori and Malory.
90n - 1800 = 50n
40n = 1800
n = 45 min
The time corresponding to n = 45 min is 12:45 pm
Answer: 12:45 pm
When you have this type of problem, you need to combine the like-terms and isolate the variable.
3x + 122 = 22x - 11
Add 11 to both sides to get rid of it
3x + 122 + 11 = 22x - 11 + 11 (-11 + 11=0)
3x + 133 = 22x
Then you would bring the 3x to the other side, so subtract 3x from both sides
3x + 133 = 22x
-3x -3x
133 = 22x - 3x
133 = 19x
Then divide both sides by 19 to isolate x
133/19 = 19x/19
133/19 = 7, so x = 7
Hope this helps!!
According to the table, the highest mountain in Africa is Mt. Kilimanjaro with 19,340 feet in height. The highest mountain in Antarctica is Vinson Massif with 16,864 feet in height.
Then, we subtract
<h2>The difference between the heights of the highest mountain in Africa and the highest mountain in Antarctica is 2,476 feet.</h2>
1) 1/6
2) 1/3
3) 1/2
4) 1/6
5)1/3
6) 1/3
If its wrong , sry..
