We have to deal with the distance in more detail
If the turtle is 11 times faster than the snail, the amount of distance he will cover is 11 times more.
d/(360 - d) = 1/11
11d = 360 - d
12d = 360
d = 30 The Snail covers 30 meters. The turtle covers 11*30 = 330 meters.
Answers
Rate of snail = 30 meters / 40 minutes = 3/4 meter / minute
Rate of turtle = 330 meters / 40 minutes = 8.25 meters / minute.
Answer:
yes because it is in the positive side
Answer:
The correct answer for this problem is the 2nd one because all you have to do is count how far each one is from -1 and -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:8_1
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n = the hours elapsed when the two trains are 660 miles apart.
Let the first train travel east and the second train travel west.
The distance traveled by the first train is
x = (50 mi/h)*(n h) = 50n mi
The distance traveled by the second train is
y = (60 mi/h)*(n h) = 60n h
The distance between the two trains after n hours is
x + y = 50 n + 60n = 110n mi
Because this distance is 660 miles, therefore
110n = 660
n = 6 hours
Answer: 6 hours
I hope this helps. Sorry it took so long
