Answer:
2 hours: 27 miles, 3 hours: 40.5 miles, 3.5 hours: 47.25 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
1.) If a hiker hikes 9 miles in 2/3 of an hour, he will hike 4.5 (Half of 2/3 is 1/3 and half of 9 is 4.5) miles in 1/3 of an hour and 13.5 miles per hour. (1/3 times 3 gives us a whole and 4.5 times 3 is 13.5)
2.) 2 hours: 13.5 * 2 = 27 miles
3.) 3 hours: 13.5 * 3 = 40.5 miles
4.) 3.5 hours: 13.5 * 3.5 = 47.25 miles
I believe the answer is 40
Rabbit: y=5x-7
Turtle: y=x
use substitution
x=5x-7
-4x=-7
x=7/4=1.75
1.75hr
Let log5 125 = x
Removing log you get 5^x = 125
Rewrite 125 as 5^3
Now 5^x = 5^3
x = 3
