Answer:

89 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = Rate(speed) × Time

D = R × T

T = 4 hours

One car's rate is 12 kilometers per hour less than the other's.

Hence:

First's car's rate = r × 4 = 4r

Second car's distance = (r + 12) × 4 = 4r + 48

4r + 4r + 48 = 760

8r + 48 = 760

8r = 760 - 48

8r = 712

r = 712/8

r = 89 km/hr

The rate of the slower car is 89 km/hr

The amount $180.00 is what percent greater than $135.00?
svp [43]
It would be: 180/135 * 100 = 36/27 * 100
= 4/3 * 100
= 400/3 = 133.33

It means, 180 is 133.33% of 135. So, the difference would be: 133.33 - 100 = 33.33%

In short, Your Final Answer would be 33.33%

Hope this helps!

In a class of 50 students, everyone has either a pierced nose or a pierced ear. The professor asks everyone with a pierced nose
Tems11 [23]

Answer:  3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let E be the event of that student pierces ear and N be the event of that student pierces nose.

Given: n(E\cup N=50)

n(E)=46\\\\n(N)=7

For any two event A and B, we have

n(A\cup B)=n(A)+n(B)-n(A\cap B)

Similarly , n(E\cup N)=n(E)+n(N)-n(E\cap N)

50=46+7-n(E\cap N)\\\\\Rightarrow\ n(E\cap N)=53-50=3

Hence, 3 students have piercings both on their ears and their noses.
