Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
this is correct on edge
"Will is twice as old as Jill."
Jill's age . . . . . J
Will's age . . . . 2J .
"Three years ago . . .
Jill's age then . . . . . J - 3
Will's age then . . . . 2J - 3
". . . Jill's age then was 2/5 of Will's age then."
J - 3 = (2/5) (2J - 3)
Multiply
each side by 5 : 5J - 15 = 2 (2J - 3)
Divide
each side by 2 : 2.5 J - 7.5 = 2J - 3
Subtract 2J
from each side: 0.5 J - 7.5 = -3
Add 7.5
to each side: 0.5 J = 4.5
Multiply
each side by 2 : J = 9
Jill is 9 y.o. now.
Will is 18 y.o. now.
Josephine travels 32500+78000 yards at 60 mph
=110500yards
=62.78miles
time = distance/spped
time = distance/60
time=62.78/60
time=1.05 (1 hour 5 mins)
Marcus travels 78000(2)(square) +32500(2)
= 84500yards
=48 miles
time = distance/speed
time=48/45
time=1.07 (1 hour 7 mins)
a)Josephine arrives first
b)she arrives earlier by 2 mins.
