Find the speed of the truck:

140 miles / 3.5 hours = 40 miles per hour

The car was 20 miles an hour faster: 40 + 20 = 60 miles per hour.

Divide distance by speed: 140 miles / 60 miles per hour = 2 1/3 hours

Answer: 2 1/3 hours

Answer: 2 2/6 hours

Explanation:

Distance = 140 miles

Time = 3 1/2 hours

= 7/2 hours

Speed = Distance/Time

= 140/(7/2)

= 40 miles

New distance = 140 Miles

New Speed = 60 miles

New Time = 140/60

= 2 2/6 hours

Sandra throws an object straight up into the air with an initial velocity of 38 ft/s from a platform that is 30 ft above the gro
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given formula h(t)=−16t2+v0t+h0 , where v0 is the initial velocity and h0 is the initial height.

In this case, the initial postion is a platform 30ft above ground so h0=+30

The initial velocity is 38 ft/s straight up into the air so v0=+38

h(t)=-16t2+38t+30

When the object hits the ground, h=0.

h=-16t2+38t+30=0

Simplifying 8t2-19t-15=0

(8t+5)(t-3)=0

t=-5/8 or 3

As time cannot be -ve, t=3s. The answer is C.
