Let the slower cars speed equal X.
The faster cars speed would be X+5 ( 5 mph faster).
They traveled for 3 hours
Multiply the time of travel by speed to equal the number of miles traveled.
So you have:
3X + 3(X+5) = 267 miles
Simplify the left side:
3X + 3X+15 = 267
Combine like terms:
6x + 15 = 267
Subtract 15 from each side"
6x = 252
Divide each side by 6:
x = 252 / 6
X = 42
The slower car was traveling at 42 mph and the faster car was traveling at 47 mph.
Answer:
4/1/5=20 because when you divide by a fraction u keep change the divison into multiplaicton and flip the 1/5 to 5/1 so 4x5
Step-by-step explanation:
So, it's just an annoying problem. Keep the tax rates in mind for each thing.
$70 of souvenirs mean the tax is 5% since it is not prepared food, lodging, or auto rentals.
$580 on prepared food means that has 7% tax because it is special.
$620 on the car has a 10% tax, as stated in the problem.
So do 70(1.05)+580(1.07)+620(1.1) to get $1376.1.0
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
The line passing through (3, -1) and (-1, 5) has this slope:
5+1
m = ---------- = -3/2
-1-3
We need to find the y-intercept. To do this, substitute the knowns (-3/2 for m, -1 for y and 3 for x) into the slope-intercept equation:
-1 = (-3/2)(3) + b. Then: -1 = -9/2 + b, and so b = 9/2 - 1 = 7/2.
The desired equation is y = (-3/2)x + 7/2.
