Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the larger number = y

Let the smaller number = x

x/y = 9/11

y - x = 6

Add x to both sides of the second equation

y = 6 + x

Substitute into the first equation

x/(x + 6) = 9/11

Cross multiply

11x = 9(x + 6)

Remove the brackets

11x = 9x + 54

Subtract 9x from both sides.

2x = 54

x = 54/2

x = 27

y = 27 + 6

y = 33

(27,33)

The way I've done it, there isn't a second pair.

I suppose you could do it this way.

9/11 = -27/-33

-27 - - 33 = 6

So the second pair could be

(-27, - 33)

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

  45 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

At 30 mph for 1/4 hour, Peter has a 7.5 mile head start. After he leaves, Mitchell closes that gap at the rate of 40-30 = 10 miles per hour. It will take him ...

  t = d/s

  t = (7.5 mi)/(10 mi/h) = 0.75 h

to catch Peter.

Mitchell will catch Peter in 45 minutes.

__

<em>Alternate Solution</em>

Another way to look at it is that Mitchell's 10 mph advantage is 1/3 of Peter's speed, so it will take 1/(1/3) = 3 times the period of Peter's head start:

  3 × 15 minutes = 45 minutes . . . for Mitchell to catch Peter

_____

You can write equations involving time and distance and see where the distances traveled become the same. You need to be careful choosing the time reference, since you're concerned with Mitchell's travel time. I personally prefer to work "head start" problems by considering the differences in time and speed, as above. This is where you end up using the equations approach, anyway.

posledela

Answer:The system of equations to describe the situation are

c + y = 8

6c + 3y = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the number of shirts.

Let y represent the number of caps.

Eight friends started a business. They will wear either a baseball cap or a shirt imprinted with their logo while working. This means that

c + y = 8 - - - - - - - - - - -1

They want to spend exactly $36 on the shirts and caps. Shirts cost $6 each and caps cost $3 each. This means that

6c + 3y = 36 - - - - - - - - - - 2
