Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the price is constant we know the ratio of cost to number of books is constant.

x/14=13/4

x=14(13)/4

x=45.50

Leah paid $45.50 for 14 books.

Esther drove to work in the morning at an average speed of 45 miles per hour. She returned home in the evening along the same ro
nydimaria [60]
The key is Esther travelled the same distance - x - in both her morning and evening commute.

45(time she took in the morning, or p) = x
30(time she took in the evening, or q) = x

Therefore 45(p) = 30(q), or divide both sides by 5 and get 9(p) = 6(q). I know you can divide it further, but these numbers are small enough and it's not worth the time.

Since the whole trip took an hour, (p + q) = 60min, and so, p = 60-q.

Therefore 9(60-q) = 6q or 540-9q = 6q. So 540 = 15q, which makes q = 36. If q = 36, then by (p+q)=60, p (the time she took in the morning) must equal 24.

45 miles per hour, her speed in the morning, times (24/60) hours, her time, makes 18 miles travelled in the morning. If you check, 30 miles per hour times (36/60) hours also makes 18 miles in the evening.
