Answer:

29, 8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. let x = 1st number and y = 2nd number.

2. The 1st sentence translates into: x = 3y+5

3. 2nd sentence translates into: x + y = 37.

4. x+y = 37 --> y = 37-x

5. x = 3(37-x)+5

x = 111-3x +5

4x = 116

x = 29

y = 37-x = 37-29 = 8

6. x = 29, y = 8

The time t required to drive a certain distance varies inversely with the speed r. If it takes 2 hours to drive the distance at

Ahat [919]

Distance = r x t ===> t=d/r

Distance (after 2 hours driving @30mil/hr) = 2 x 30 = 60 Mil

To drive same distance (60) with r = 50, the time needed is 60/50 =1.2 hrs
