Let the time taken by Vince to complete the race was x hours.
Maury completed the race 1.5 hours faster. This means Maury complete the race in (x - 1.5) hours.
Average Speed of Maury = 16 miles per hour
Average Speed of Vince = 12 miles per hour
Distance = Speed x Time.
For Maury:
Distance = 16(x - 1.5)
For Vince:
Distance = 12x
Since the distance covered by both was the same, we can equate the two equations as:
16(x - 1.5) = 12x
16x - 24 = 12x
4x = 24
x = 6
This means Vince complete the race in 6 hours.
Distance = Speed x Time = 12 x 6 = 72 miles
Thus, the total distance of the race was 72 miles.
The large box is 45 pounds and the small is 20 pounds

Answer: -9/28
Answer:
x = 3, line AB = 17 , and line CD = 17
y = 10, angle A = 70, and angle D = 70
Step-by-step explanation:
well since their the same length you can put them equal to each otheir
5x + 2 = 8x - 7
subtract 5x by both sides to get --> 2 = 3x -7
add 7 to both sides and get --> 9 = 3x
divide 3 by both sides to get x = 3
now plug it back in each equation we started with and get you answers
Same steps for y but different equations
