Answer:
21 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Taking CITY STREET:
Time taken to drive to nearest bowling alley = 45 minutes = 45/60 = 0.75 hours
Speed of travel = 30 miles per hour
Taking FREEWAY:
speed of travel = 65miles per hour
If the distance to bowling alley is the same along both routes, The time taken along FREEWAY will be :
.
Distance to bowling alley taking city center :
Speed = distance / time
30 mph = distance / 0.75 hour
Distance = 30 × 0. 75 = 22.5 miles
Since distance is the same :
Time taken along FREEWAY :
Time taken = distance / speed
Time taken = 22.5 / 65 = 0.3461538 hour
Converting to minutes :
0.3461538 × 60 = 20.769 minutes
= 21 minutes ( to the nearest minute)
There you go, hope that this helps
One way ti find the common denominatir is to check ti see if ine denominator is a factor to the other deniminator if it is then the deniminator can be used as the common denominator when the two deniminators are the same compare the numerators
No it is a straight line they are not collinear
