Answer:
Rate of speed = 480 feet per minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Distance covered by bike = 960 feet
Time taken to covered distance = 2 minutes
Find:
Rate of speed = ?
Computation:
⇒ Speed = Distance / Time
⇒ Rate of speed = Distance covered by bike / Time taken to covered distance
⇒ Rate of speed = 960 / 2
⇒ Rate of speed = 480 feet per minutes
First we define variables:
x = first card original value
y = second card original value
z = third card original value
We write the system of equations:
Andrew bought 3 baseball cards for $ 240:
x + y + z = 240
the first card (at its original value) along with the second card (at its original price) and got $ 320:
2x + y = 320
the first card (at its original value) card along with the third card (at its original price) would have only got him $ 280:
2x + z = 280
Solving the system we have:
x = 120
y = 80
z = 40
Answer:
The original prices for each of the 3 baseball cards is:
(120, 80, 40)
