Can you show the answer choices but I believe is 18
Total distance 5 km; at 5km / 0.65 h =
Second part distance: x; at 6 km/h, during t2
First part distance: 5 - x; at 8.75 km/h, during t1
V = d/t ⇒ t = d/V
t2 = x/6
t1=[5-x]/8.75
t2 + t1 = 0.65
x/6 + [5-x]/8.75 = 0.65
x/6 + 5/8.75 - x/8.75 = 13/20
x/6 - x/8.75 = 13/20 - 5/8.75
x/6 - 4x/35 =13/20 - 20/35
35x - 24x = (35*6)(35*13 - 20*20)/(20*35)
11 x = 16.5
x = 16.5/11 = 1.5 km
Payment on Plan A = $300
x is the number of hours Jake works.
Payment on Plan B = Fixed charges + (charge per hour) × (number of hours worked)
= $150 + $6.25(x)
= 150 + 6.25x
Since, the payment on Plan B should be more than Plan A,
150 + 6.25x > 300
6.25x > 300 - 150
6.25x > 150
x > 24
The minimum vale for x which satisfies this inequality is 25.
Hence, x = 25.
<span> You must make it a fraction by multiplying by 100, moving the decimal over by 2 spaces right so we have 36. Then, put it over 100, because it is a fraction. Now, with 36/100 we must simplify by dividing each number by another # that goes into it evenly, such as 2. We get 18/50, reduce by 2, we get 9/25. There you go hope I helped </span>
Divide both sides by -3, and replace 
with 
. Then
Factorize the quadratic in to get
which in turn means
But 
for all real 
, so we can ignore the first solution. This leaves us with
If we allow for any complex solution, then we can continue with the solution we ignored:
