8 ones = 1 X 8 = 8
0 tenths = 0 X 1/10 = 0
9 hundredths = 9 X 1/100 = 0.09.
Now we can add everything together to obtain the value.
8 + 0 + 0.09 = 8.09.
Now we can find the difference between the 2 values.
8.09 - 3.40 = 4.69.
4.69 is the final answer.
240(v+2.5)=1300-240v
240v+600=1300-240v
480v=1900
v=95/24
v-2.5=v-5/2
95/24-60/24=35/24
So the faster group travels at 95/24 mph (≈3.96 mph) and the slower group travels at 35/24 mph (≈1.46mph)
check...
240(95/24)=950 miles from the origin...
1300-240(35/24)=950 miles from the origin...
The answer is 1/6 because it is not negative
Negative 4 is less than negative 1
5 x 5 is your answer
Have a great day
