Answer:

  • A) 290 km
  • B) 4 hours
  • C) 72.5 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let distance be d and time t

<u>At 75 km/h speed the distance is</u>

  • d = 75(t - 48 min) = 75(t - 48/60 hours)

<u>At 50 km/h speed the distance</u> is

  • d = 50t + 40

<u>Since the distance is same, we get the equation:</u>

  • 75(t - 48/60) = 50t + 40
  • 75t - 75*4/5 = 50t + 40
  • 75t - 60 = 50t + 40
  • 75t - 50t = 40 + 60
  • 25t = 100
  • t = 4 hours

<u>A) The distance between A and B</u>

  • d = 50*5 + 40 = 290 km

<u>B) Time is </u>

  • 4 hours as found above

<u>C) The speed = d/t</u>

  • Speed = 290/4 = 72.5 km/h

Chicken strips at a restaurant sell for the following prices: 4 pieces for $2.40 6 pieces for $3.00 How much do customers save p
const2013 [10]

Answer:

10 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to answer this question we have to find how much each chicken strip costs individually.

Let's start with the 4 piece.

To find how much each piece costs we have to divide $2.40 by 4. Like this:

\frac{2.40}{4} = .60

In the 4 piece, every chicken strip costs .60 cents.

Now, let's do the 6 piece.

Like before we are going to divide $3.00 by 6.

\frac{3.00}{6} = .50

In the 6 piece, every chicken strip costs .50 cents.

Therefore, customers save 10 cents when they buy the larger quantity.

<em>I hope this helps!</em>

<em>If you have any questions let me know!</em>
