Answer:

105 miles / hour for 1 hour

130 miles / hour for 5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

  • speed = 105 mph
  • distance = x
  • time = y

Part B

  • speed = 130 mph
  • distance = 755 miles - x
  • time = 6 hr - y

plane Part A: x = 105 *y

Plane Part B: 755 - x = 130*(6 - y)

Put 105*y into the equation for plane B

755 - 105*y = 130*(6- y)                            Remove brackets on the the right.

755 - 105y = 780 - 130y                           Add 130y to both sides

755 - 105y + 130y = 780                          Combine left

755 + 25y = 780                                      Subtract 755 from both sides

25y = 780 - 755                                      

25y = 25                                                  Divide by 25

y = 25/25

y = 1

The plane travelled 1 hour at 105 mile / hour

The plane travelled 5 hour at 130 mile / hour

Check

1 hour for a distance of 1 hr * 105 mph =  105 mile

5 hour for a distance of 5 hr*130 mph <u>  = 650 miles</u>

Total distance =                                          755 miles

Remark

This is a very neat problem. I don't think I've ever seen this variation. It is a little long, but it is well worth your time.

Justin bought some yarn from his favorite craft store. He can make one scarf with 3/5 of a ball of yarn. If he purchases 15 ball
Elena L [17]

He can make 25 scarves from 15 balls of yarn.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Yarn used for one scarf = \frac{3}{5} of a ball

Yarn purchased = 15 balls

Let,

x be the number of scarves.

Yarn used for one scarf*number of scarves = Yarn purchased

\frac{3}{5}x=15

Multiplying both sides by \frac{5}{3}

\frac{5}{3}*\frac{3}{5}x=15*\frac{5}{3}\\x=\frac{75}{3}\\x=25

He can make 25 scarves from 15 balls of yarn.
