Complete question is;

Roger and Rita each drive at a constant speed between Phoenix and San Diego. Each driver’s distance for the same section of the trip is displayed below. Who had a head start, and how many miles was the head start?

A) Rita had a 28-mile head start.

B) Roger had a 26-mile head start.

C) Roger had a 25-mile head start.

D) Rita had a 22-mile head start.

Answer:

A) Rita had a 28-mile head start.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume that Roger travelled a distance of 60 miles

And that;

Rita travelled a distance of 32 miles

We are told that they travelled between Phoenix and San Diego.

Thus, it means that if they have different distances but covered same section of the trip, it means the one with higher distance started before the section of the trip.

Thus, it means that Rita had a head start of Roger since she covered only 32 miles.

Thus;

Rita had a head start of; 60 - 32 = 28 miles

What is the solution to this equation? x + (- 14) = 4. (A) x = 10. (B) x = - 10. (C) x = - 18. (D) x = 18
Vika [28.1K]
First, you want to get x by itself on one side. We write the equation as x-14=4. Since 14 is being subtracted from x, we add it to both sides to cancel it out, x-14+14=4+14 or x=18.

Your answer would be D.

- An experiment consists of rolling two fair
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

Each time two cubes are rolled, the sum can be a number from 2 (rolling 1 and 1) to 12 (rolling 6 and 6). It is impossible to get a sum of more than 12, so there is zero probability of getting a sum of 47.
