Answer:
17 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
4+5+5+3=17
Answer: Both families were travelling at the same speed/rate of 1mile/0.65mins or 1mile/0.01hr.
Step-by-step explanation: Speed of Houck family's train = 552m/6hrs
speed of Robert family's train = 744m/8hrs.
Therefore considering Houck speed,
552miles = 6hours
1mile = (6 x 60)/552
= 360/552
= 0.65minutes. Average speed = 1mile/0.65mins. Or 1mile/0.01hr
For Robert
744miles = 8hours
1mile = ( 8 x 60 )/744
= (480/744)minutes
= 0.645
= 0.65minutes. Average speed = 1mile/0.65mins. Or 1mile/0.01hr
Conclusion: Both families were travelling at the same speed/rate.
To get that minutes in hour, just divide by 60 to get concert to hours.
Assign variables to you unknowns.
c = $ cars
t = $ trucks
6c + 3t = 4800
8c + t = 4600
use substitution or elimination to solve the system of equations.
using elimination.. multiply second equation by -3 and add to the other to combine equations into one.
6c + 3t = 4800
-3(8c + t = 4600)
---------------------------
-18c + 0 = -9000
c = 9000/18
c = 500 $
use this in one of the equations to find the cost of a truck.
8(500) + t = 4600
4000 + t = 4600
t = 4600 - 4000
t = 600 $
question asks
2(500) + 3(600) =
1000 + 1800 = 2800 $
thats the answer just look at the picture :)
for the work
