Let A represent the speed of car A. Using your formula,
.. A*2 = D
.. (A +15)*1.5 = D . . . . . the same distance in a shorter time at a higher speed
Equating the two expressions for D, we get
.. 2A = 1.5(A +15)
.. 2A = 1.5A +22.5 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
.. 0.5A = 22.5 . . . . . . . . .subtract 1.5A
.. A = 22.5/0.5 = 45 . . . .divide by 0.5
Car B was 15 mph faster than this.
Car B traveled at 60 miles per hour.
Answer:
Area = 
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>The Complete Question:</u>
A rectangle has height
and width
. What is the area of the rectangle in terms of x?
<u>Solution:</u>
The formula for the area of a rectangle is:
Area = Height * Width
Both the expressions for height and width is given, so we just need to multiply both the expressions to get an expression, in x, for the area of the rectangle. The algebra is shown below:

This is the area of the rectangle.

Let,
the bigger number be "x"
the smaller number be "y"
Now, according to the question,
x + y = 24...........equation (1).............because the sum of numbers is 24
x - y = 15 .............equation (2)..................because their difference is 15
Taking equation (2),
x - y = 15
x = 15 + y ....................equation (3)
Now, Taking equation (1)
x + y = 24
(Substituting the value of "x" form equation (3) we get)
15 + y + y = 24
(Subtracting 15 on both sides, we get)
y + y = 24 - 15
2y = 9
y = 9 / 2
y = 4.5
Now,
Taking equation (3)
x = 15 + y
(Substituting the value of y , we get)
x = 15 + 4.5
x = 19.5
So, the two numbers are 19.5 and 4.5
This is combinations
exg. lets say you have 2 hats and 1 pair of shoes, the answe ris 2 options, if 2 hats and 2 pairs of shoes, the answer is 4 because 2 times 2=4
3 options for sandwitch
3 soup
4 salad
2 drink
we multiply all together
3 times 3 times 4 times 2=72 options
