USPshnik [31]

the whole exam will be 100%, and let's say that's "x" questions, but we also know that 9 is 60% of that so

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} x&100\\ 9&60 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{x}{9}=\cfrac{100}{60}\implies \cfrac{x}{9}=\cfrac{5}{3}\implies 3x=45 \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{45}{3}\implies x=15$

John left the museum and drove south at a rate of 55 mph. Sally left four hours later driving 10 mph faster than John in an effo

Leona [35]

Answer:

22 hours (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

John's velocity = 55mph

Sally's velocity = 65mph

John's time taken = x

Sally's time taken = x - 4

since they must cover the same distance.

and, distance = vel × time

Sally's vel × time = John's vel × time

55x = 65(x-4)

55x = 65x - 220

-10x = -220

x = 22 hours.

Therefore, Sally catches up after 22 hours
