10 would be the answer I believe.
The length of hours Gilbert drove is 7.5 hours.
The length of hours Brian drove is 4.1 hours.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
- Gilbert averaged = 45 miles per hour
- Brain averaged = 65 miles per hour
- Total hours = 11.6 hours
- Total distance = 604 miles
Let 'x' be the hours Gilbert drove.
Let 'y' be the hours Brian drove.
x+y = 11.6 -----(1)
45x+65y = 604 -----(2)
Multiply (1) by 45 and subtract (2) from (1)
45x+45y = 522
-(<u>45x+65y = 604</u>)
<u> -20y = -82 </u>
y = 82/20
y = 4.1 hours
The length of hours Brian drove = 4.1 hours
Substitute y=4.1 in (1)
x+4.1 = 11.6
x = 7.5 hours
The length of hours Gilbert drove = 7.5 hours
Answer:
A child's education depends on the support of his or her parents. I believe that engaging with parents and making sure that they have an active role in their child's success is vital. I give parents my contact information so they can get in touch and ask any questions they have about how their child is performing, and I also provide updates about what my students have learned and accomplished.”

Answer:
10 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Say x is the number of hours he can rent the detector at most. Using it, we can set up this equation:
15 + 2x = 35
Subtract 15 from both sides
2x = 20
Divide by 2 on both sides
x = 10
All you have to do is divide 75 by .15. To start, you need to get rid of the decimal in .15, so move your decimal two spots to the right to turn .15 into 15. Then you have to move your decimal that is implied to be at the end of 75 over two spots because you moved the decimal in .15 which makes it 7,500. Now you have:
7,500 ÷ 15 = 500 500 is your answer.
