Answer:

2) Equation 1 and Equation 2 have the same number of solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two given equations are

1) 15x + 6 = 41 and 2) 2x + 13 = 28

Solving both equations, we get

Solving (1) : 15x + 6 = 41 ⇒ 15x = 41 - 6 = 35

or, x = 35/15 ⇒ x = 7/3

Solving (2) : 2x + 13 = 28⇒ 2x = 28 - 13 = 15

or, x = 15/2 ⇒ x = 15/2

So, from above solutions we can say that Equation 1 and Equation 2 have the same number of UNIQUE solution.

A girl ran from her home to a store at the rate of 6 mph, and she walked back home at the rate of 4 mph. if it took 15 minutes f

viva [34]

Home is 0.6 miles away from the store

How to solve such time related questions?

The key concept for solving such questions is the relationship between speed, distance and time.

The relationship between them is Distance = Speed x Time

Given:-

Total time taken by girl to complete the trip = 15 minutes = $\frac{1}{4}$ hours

Speed while riding going = 6 miles per hour

Speed while coming back = 4 miles per hour

Total time taken by girl =

Time taken while going + Time taken while coming back - (1)

Let x be distance from home to store

$\frac{x}{6}$ = Time taken while going

$\frac{x}{4}$ = Time taken while coming back

Substituting in (1) we get

$\frac{1}{4} = \frac{x}{6} + \frac{x}{4}$

$\frac{1}{4} = \frac{2x + 3x}{12}$

$\frac{1}{4} = \frac{5x}{12}$

$x= \frac{12}{20}$

x = 0.6 miles

Thus home is 0.6 miles away from the store

14 apples because altogether the ratio adds up to 7 and 49/7=7 so we could rewrite the ratio as 2x:5x so x=7. there for 2x ,the number of apples is 14
