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

PLEASE HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer:

R = \frac {3ST}{2S + T}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation;

\frac {3}{R} - \frac {1}{S} = \frac {2}{T}

Rearranging the equation, we have;

\frac {3}{R} = \frac {2}{T} + \frac {1}{S}

Lowest common multiple (LCM) of S and T is ST.

\frac {3}{R} = \frac {2S + T}{ST}

Cross-multiplying, we have;

3ST = R(2S + T)

Making R, the subject of formula;

R = \frac {3ST}{2S + T}

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall these rules of logs:  log a + log b = log (ab), and log a^b = b log a

Then 3 log q = log q^3 and 6 log v = log v^6, and

log q^3 + 6 log v becomes log q^3 * v^6

Now rewrite this using b as the base:

log     q^3 * v^6

     b
