Answer: 60 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

It takes ferry 2 hours to travel to town A and only 1.5\ hr to travel back to town B.

Speed of current is u=5\ mph

Suppose the speed of the ferry is v mph

Distance traveled in both the cases is same, but it took more time traveling to city A that is, ferry is moving upstream and downstream for returning time.

\Rightarrow 2(v-5)=1.5(v+5)\\\Rightarrow 2v-10=1.5v+7.5\\\Rightarrow 0.5v=17.5\\\Rightarrow v=35\ mph

Distance between the towns is 2\times (35-5)=60\ \text{miles}

Answer:

The distance between the two towns is 60 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the distance between A and B is d.

A to B , t = 2 hour

B to A , t' = 1.5 hour

Speed of current, u = 5 mph

Let the speed of ferry is v.

distance = speed x time

d = (v - 5) x 2 = (v + 5) x 1.5

2 v - 10 = 1.5 v + 7.5

0.5 v = 17.5

v = 35 mph

So, the distance is

d = (35 - 5) x 2 = 60 miles.

4 Suki watches a movie and eats a snack afterward. The movie starts at 7:15 PM
Olin [163]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

25 minutes long

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Hope this helps!

Ok so we know that the movie starts at 7:15 PM. The duration of the movie is 1.5 hours long. She begins eating her snack after the movie which, sense 7:15 plus 1.5 hours is 8:45, is 8:45. She finishes her snack at 9:10. What is the difference between 9:10 and 8:45?

For me, the easiest thing to do we would be to add a half hour (30 minutes) to the 8:45. This gets 9:15. Since 9:15 is past 9:10, I subtract the difference to get 5 minutes. I then take the 30 minutes I added to the 8:45 and subtract the 5 minutes that it went over to get 25 minutes. This is the easiest way to get the answer in my opinion. Sorry if this could not be of help to you!

Diagram to better understand maybe? (I did the best I could with this lol)

                                              x (the 25 minutes you found once you solved it)

                                                                                      ^

7:15 PM ----------------------------- 1.5 hours later----------------------------------- 9:10 PM

^                                                          ^                                                            ^

Time the movie started          Movie length             When she finished eating
