Answer:

They will be 608 miles from their destination after 3.7 hours

They will be 692 miles from their destination after 2.3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the amount of miles that it takes them in total to drive to their destination.

3 hours into the trip, they already drove 180 miles, since they drove at 60 mph.

Add this to 650 to find the total number of miles to the destination:

180 + 650 = 830

Now, find how far they will be 3.7 hours after:

3.7(60) = 222

830 - 222

= 608 miles

Find how far they were 2.3 hours after:

2.3(60) = 138

830 - 138

= 692 miles

They will be 608 miles from their destination after 3.7 hours

They will be 692 miles from their destination after 2.3 hours

a mint plant grows 7/8 in 1 week and 13/16 inch the next week. use a common denominator to write an equivalent fraction for each

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

28/32 and 26/32

Step-by-step explanation:

A common denominator of 8 and 16 is 32.

7/8 = (7 * 4)/(8 * 4) = 28/32

13/16 = (13 * 2)/(16 * 2) = 26/32

Two equivalent fractions with a common denominator are 28/32 and 26/32.

In jims class, 5 times has many students take the bus as those who walk. A total of 24 students walk or take the bus. How many m

lubasha [3.4K]

Take bus=5 times walk
b=5w
b+w=24
sub 5w for b
5w+w=24
6w=24
divide both sides by 6
w=4

sub back
b=5w
b=5(4)
b=20

bus-walk=20-4=16

answer is 16 more take the bus than walk

The top of a mountain is 2,450 feet above sea level a shipwreck was discover 310 feet below sea level what is the distance betwe

arlik [135]

Answer:

$d=2,760\ ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the height of the top of a mountain above sea level

y ----> the deep of a shipwreck below the sea level

we know that

The sea level represent the height equal to zero

In this problem we have

$x=2,450\ ft$ ---> is positive because is above sea level

$y=-310\ ft$ ---> is negative because is below sea level

To find out the distance between the mountain top and the ship wreck, determine the absolute value of the difference between the two values

$d=\left|x-y\right|$

substitute the values

$d=\left|2,450-(-310)\right|$

$d=\left|2,450+310\right|$

$d=\left|2,760\right|$

$d=2,760\ ft$
