Dale drove to the mountains last weekend. there was heavy traffic on the way there, and the trip took 7 hours. when dale drove home, there was no traffic and the trip only took 5 hours. if his average rate was 18 miles per hour faster on the trip home, how far away does dale live from the mountains? do not do any rounding.
Answer:
Dale live 315 miles from the mountains
Step-by-step explanation:
Let y be the speed of Dale to the mountains
Time taken by Dale to the mountains=7 hrs
Therefore distance covered by dale to the mountain = speed × time = 7y ......eqn 1
Time taken by Dale back home = 5hours
Since it speed increased by 18 miles per hour back home it speed = y+18
So distance traveled home =speed × time = (y+18)5 ...... eqn 2
Since distance cover is same in both the eqn 1 and eqn 2.
Eqn 1 = eqn 2
7y = (y+18)5
7y = 5y + 90
7y - 5y = 90 (collection like terms)
2y = 90
Y = 45
Substitute for y in eqn 1 to get distance away from mountain
= 7y eqn 1
= 7×45
= 315 miles.
∴ Dale leave 315 miles from the mountains
Answer:
An expression that would show how much the student paid is 3(4) + 0.95, which can be solved to be 12.95
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that we need to multiply the number of cans (3) by the price of the cans (4). We also know the sales tax for the total is 0.95, which can simply be added to the end.
