Answer:
36 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
helicopter 1 is ahead of helicopter 2 by 90 miles
the difference in their speeds is 150 mph
90/150=3/5 of hour
3/5*60=36 minutes
So j completed 6/7 of a lap
gabe has completed 2/9 lap
so
1 j lap=7 mins s o
7j
j=num of laps
1 g lap=9 mins so
9g
g=num of laps
then 6+j
and g+2
so
when will the times be equal
7j+6=9g+2
subtract 2 from both sides
7j+4=9g
divide both sides by 9
7/9j+4/9=g
so to get a whole number of laps, we must subsitute a number when it is multiplied by 7 then add 4, we get a multiplue of 9
so if j=2
7/9(2)+4/9=g=14/9+4/9=g=18/9=g=2
so josh and gabe must run 2 lap each because
6+(2 times 7)=2+(9 times 2)
6+14=2+18
20=20
true so
the answer is 2 laps
