Answer:

She caught up with Jordan at 6:39 AM

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this question making linear functions for the distances that Jorden and his mom have driven, and then we equalize them to find the moment they caught up.

Jorden leaves home for school on his bike everyday at 6:00 AM, traveling at 32 km/h.

Her mom will have left 15 minutes after he left, when he will already have traveled \frac{15*32}{60} = \frac{32}{4} = 8\text{km}

So, his position after t minutes can be modeled by the following function:

J(t) = 8 + 32t

His mom

His mom goes after him starting from home, so the initial position is 0, with a velocity of 52 km/h. So her position can be modeled by the following function:

M(t) = 52t

At what time did she catch up with Jorden,

She catches up t minutes after 6:15 AM.

t is found when

M(t) = J(t)

So

8 + 32t = 52t

20t = 8

t = \frac{8}{20}

t = 0.4

0.4 of an hour is 0.4*60 = 24 minutes.

So she catched up with Jordan after 6:15 AM + 24 minutes = 6:39 AM

8 divided by 8.7 what is the answer ?
Andreas93 [3]

I recommend using a calculator, but working out the problem manually is alright too. Be sure to check your answer to make sure it's correct by looking over your work or by multiplying two of the numbers to see if it equals the third. The answer is about .92.

Three less than "x" is equal to 13
Arturiano [62]
If you're looking to find X, then X would equal 16, since 16 minus 3 would equal 13
