Answer: speed of the car is 88 miles per hour
the speed of the motorcycle is 78 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of miles travelled by car = 312
Number of miles travelled by motorcycle = 272
Let x = speed of the car
Let y = speed of the motorcycle
If the car's speed is 10mph more than the motorcycle's, it means
x = y + 10 - - -- - - 1
Time taken for car to travel 312 miles is distance /speed = 312/x
Time taken for motorcycle to travel 272 miles is distance /speed = 272/y
The car travels 312 miles in the same time that a motorcycle traveled 272.
This means
312/x = 272/y
312y = 272x
y = 272x/312
Substituting y = 272x/312 into equation 1, it becomes
x = 272x/312 + 10
312x = 272x + 3120
312x-272x = 3120
40x = 3120
x = 3120/40 = 78 miles per hour
x = y + 10 = y + 78
x = 88 miles per hour
Square because all rectangles are squares
Original price of the radio is $64.30
Sale price - $51.44
Discount rate - 20%
This means that $51.44 is the discounted price or is equivalent to 80% of the original price, since the 20% equivalent is deducted from the original price.
To get the original price, divide $51.44 by its corresponding percentage, 80%.
$51.44 / 80% = $64.30
To get the discount, multiply the original price by its discount rate
$64.30 x 20% = $12.86
To get the sales price, deduct the discount from the original price.
$64.30 - $12.86 = $51.44
100% - 20% = 80%
Answer:
No, you would multiply 12
