Square root of 11, 5, 6, square root of 40
Let's say the distance is "x".
time = distance / rate
time1 = x / 40
time2 = x/80
A) time1 shoud be twice time2 or (time1 / time2) =2
B) time1 -1 = time2
Substituting equation B) into A)
((time1 / (time1 -1) = 2
time1 = 2* time1 -2
time1 = 2 hours time2 = 1 hour
Distance = 80 miles
1st trip time1 = 80/40 = 2 hours
return trip time2 = 80/80 = 1 hour
total trip = 160 miles in 3 hours
average speed = 53.333333 miles per hour
S^3=216yd^3 so then s=6 yd
Bill's age = x
Eya's age = 3x - 5
Eya is 28
28 = 3x - 5
28 (+5) = 3x -5 (+5)
33 = 3x
33/3 = 3x/3
x = 11
Bill = x
x = 11
Bill is 11 years old
hope this helps
