By cross-multiplying, we get
15x + 30 = 24
15x = -6
x = -3 / 5
Answer:
I'm pretty sure question 1 is true.
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 - 1/3
Since the denominators are the same, we subtract the numerators
1/3
step 1
convert miles to km
1 mile is-----> 1.60934 km
18.5 miles/hour-----> 18.5*1.60934=29.77 km/hour
step 2
convert km/hour to km/minutes
29.77 km/hour--------> 29.77/60----> 0.4962 km/minutes
step 3
by proportion
0.4962 km/1 minutes=125 km/x minutes
0.4962 km----------> 1 minute
125 km-------------> x
x=125/0.4962----> x=251.91 minutes---------> x=251.9 minutes
the answer is
251.9 minutes
Alternative Method
step 1
convert km to miles
1 km is-----> 0.621371 miles
125 km-----> 125*0.621371--->77.67 miles
step 2
convert miles/hour to miles/minutes
18.5 km/hour--------> 18.5/60----> 0.3083 miles/minutes
step 3
by proportion
0.3083 miles/1 minutes=77.67 miles/x minutes
0.3083 miles----------> 1 minute
77.67 miles-------------> x
x=77.67/0.3083----> x=251.9 minutes
