To answer this item, we let x be the distance that Jimmy drove from his origin and back. Given the speeds, the time it takes for him to travel to and fro are,
t1 = x / 46
t2 = x / 52
respectively.
The equation that would best represent the scenario is,
x/46 - x/52 = 0.6
The value of x from the equation is 239.2.
The trip there takes x/46 which is equal to 239.2/46 which is also equal to 5.2 hours. The travel from the cabin back took 4.6 hours.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: -$6,500
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we could , use the arithmetic progression where
T(2020 - 2010) = a + ( n - 1 )d
T10 = a + ( 10 - 1 )d --------------- 1
a = $25,000, n = 10 and d = 14% of $25,000 = $3,500 the common difference.
Note since it decreases the common difference d = -$3,500.
Now substitute for the values in the equation above.
T10 = 25,000 + 9 x -3,500
= $25,000 - $31,500
= -$6,500 (deficit )
You can write it as 721 over 1000, then simplify from there
