2b. Add then divide, so 9+8=17, then answer = 17/7 unless you have to write in improper faction.
3b. 5^3= 5 x 5 x 5
The answer is 1,000. 500(2)= 1000
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let b
Bill's rate of travel = x
Let Julie's rate of travel = 3x
The time each travels is 2.5 hours
Together they travel a distance of 190 miles
d = r*t
Bill's distance covered is r * t = 2.5x
Julie's distance travel is 2.5 * 3x = 7.5x
The total distance = Bill + Julie
2.5x + 7.5x = 190
10x = 190
x = 190/10
x = 19
Bill's distance = 2.5 * 19 = 47.5
Julie's distance = 19 * 7.5 = 142.5
Rate = distance / time
Bill's rate = 47.5 / 2.5 = 19 miles per hour.
Julie's rate = 142.5/2.5 = 57 miles per hour
Is there an easier way?
You should notice that Bill's rate is just x which is 19 miles / hour
You can also notice that Julie is going 3 times as fast or 19*3 = 57
