This is a counting principle problem.
Just multiply all of the different possibilities:
5 * 3 = 15
I believe that the answer is n+100- second choice
Answer:
It would take 9 hours for them to meet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total distance covered by both per hour: 19+17=36
The total time to go 324 miles for them: 324/36=9
To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure below:
1. Let's call:
x: hot dogs.
y: hamburguers.
2. Then, you must make a system of equations, as below:
5x+4y=12.25 (i)
4x+5y=12.50 (ii)
3. Now, you can solve the system of equation as below:
5x+4y=12.25
x=(12.25-4y)/5
4x+5y=12.50
4((12.25-4y)/5)+5y=12.50
y=1.5
4x+5y=12.50
4x+5(1.5)=12.50
x=1.25
4. Therefore, the answer is:
The cost of one hot dog is $1.25 and the cost of one hamburguer is $1.50
36:64
Divide each by 4 to get it in simplest form
You get 9:16 as your answer
