I saw the pie chart that should have accompanied this word problem.

Favorite fruit:
Grapes = 150
Apple = 220
Orange = 185
Banana = 235

Choices:
A) 37/47
B) 185/790
C) 790/275
D) 235/185

Oranges = 185 ; Bananas = 235

Ratio of oranges to Bananas = 185/235
Simplify 185/235
185 ÷ 5 = 37
235 ÷ 5 = 47

Ratio of oranges to Bananas = 37/47 Choice A.

Find the value of x and the measure of the exterior angle. (9x+16) (5x-14)

olasank [31]

Answer:

$x = 15 \: \: .....(5(15)- 14) = 61$

$(9x + 16 )= (5x - 14) + 90 \\ 9x - 5x = 90 - 14 - 16 \\ 4x = 60 \\ x = \frac{60}{4} \\ x = 15$

Answer:

Part A. At least 6 hours

Part B. In less than 2.5 hours Elijah will be behind Mercedes

Part C. In more than 2.5 hours Elijah will be ahead Aubrey

Step-by-step explanation:

D = distance

v =speed

t = time

Formula connecting D, v and t:

$D=v\cdot t$

Part A.

Steve's speed: $v=3.5\ mph$

Distance: at least 21 miles

Time: unknown, so

$3.5\cdot t\ge 21\\ \\35t\ge 210\ [\text{Multiplied by 10}]\\ \\t\ge \dfrac{210}{35}\\ \\t\ge \dfrac{30}{5}\\ \\t\ge 6$

It would take Steve at least 6 hours to walk at least 21 mi on Day 1.

Part B.

Mercedes's speed: $v_M=2.4\ mph$

Elijan's speed: $v_E=3.2\ mph$

Elijan's Distance walked: $D_E$ miles

Mercedes's Distance walked: $D_M$ miles

Time: x hours

Mercedes is 2 miles ahead, so

$D_E=3.2x\\ \\D_M=2.4x+2$

Elijan will be behind when

$D_E$

In 2.5 hours Elijan will catch up Mercedes, and in less than 2.5 hours Elijah will be behind Mercedes.

Part C.

Aubrey's speed: $v_M=3\ mph$

Elijan's speed: $v_E=3.2\ mph$

Elijan's Distance walked: $D_E$ miles

Aubrey's Distance walked: $D_A$ miles

Time: x hours

At the beginning of Day 3, Elijah starts walking at the marker for Mile 42, and Aubrey starts walking at the marker for Mile 42.5.

$D_E=42+3.2x\\ \\D_A=42.5+3x$

Elijan will be ahead of Aubrey when

$D_E>D_A\\ \\42+3.2x> 42.5+3x\\ \\3.2x-3x>42.5-42\\ \\0.2x>0.5\\ \\2x>5\ [\text{Multiplied by 10}]\\ \\x>\dfrac{5}{2}\\ \\x>2.5\ hours$

In 2.5 hours Elijan will catch up Aubrey, and in more than 2.5 hours Elijah will be ahead Aubrey.
