Answer:

  105 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the relation ...

  distance = speed · time

to write equations for the distance each girl travels as a function of time t since Jillian started.

  Jillian's distance = (6 ft/s)(t)

  Samantha's distance = (7 ft/s)(t -15) . . . . Samantha starts 15 seconds after the clock starts running

These distances are the same when ...

  6t = 7(t -15)

  6t = 7t -105 . . . . eliminate parentheses

  105 = t . . . . . . . . add 105-6t

Jillian had been walking 105 seconds when the two girls met.

Is this true or false 4/3 = 8/9
nirvana33 [79]
False. To make nine, you must multiply three by three. Four times three isn’t 8. An equivalent equation would be 4/3=12/9

Answer:

15/7

Step-by-step explanation:

To divide fractions, the process is as follows:

1) Flip one of the fractions over (numerator becomes denominator, denominator becomes numerator). In this problem, this step looks like:

5/7 divided by 1/3 ---> 5/7 divided by 3/1

2) Once one fraction is flipped, change the division sign to a multiplication sign. In this problem, this step looks like:

5/7 divided by 3/1 ---> 5/7 * 3/1

3) Multiply the fraction (multiply one fraction's numerator and denominator by the other's) In this problem, this step looks like:

5/7 * 3/1 ---> 15/7.

To check, use the same steps in the problem ? * 1/3 = 5/7. You'll find that 15/7 * 1/3 = 5/7.
