You and a friend start riding bikes toward

Mathematics
1 answer:
Setler [38]2 years ago

Answer:

1.5 hours

I traveled farther

2 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{Speed}=\dfrac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}

My speed

\dfrac{2\dfrac{1}{6}}{\dfrac{1}{4}}=\dfrac{\dfrac{13}{6}}{\dfrac{1}{4}}=\dfrac{26}{3}\ \text{mph}

Speed of my friend

7\dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{22}{3}\ \text{mph}

Time passed for both me and my friend will be equal if we start at the same time and the combined distance covered by both of us will be 24 miles. Let t be the time taken to meet

\text{Distance}=\text{Speed}\times\text{Time}

\dfrac{26}{3}t+\dfrac{22}{3}t=24\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{48}{3}t=24\\\Rightarrow 16t=24\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{24}{16}\\\Rightarrow t=1.5\ \text{hours}

So, we meet each other after 1.5 hours.

Distance traveled by me

\dfrac{26}{3}\times 1.5=13\ \text{miles}

Distance traveled by my friend

\dfrac{22}{3}\times 1.5=11\ \text{miles}

So, I traveled farther by 13-11=2\ \text{miles}.

Parallel to y =9x 3, y-intercept at -2
Mashutka [201]
Slope-intercept form:
y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y-intercept

We have this line: y=9x+3; a line parallel to this line (y=9x+3) will have the same slope; therefore m would be equal to 9 (m=9).

Data:
m=9
b=-2
y=mx+b
y=9x-2

Answer: y=9x-2

The five members of the Traynor family each buy train tickets. During the train ride, each family member buys a boxed lunch for
larisa [96]

Let's assume

the price of each train ticket is x

we are given

total number of family members =5

so, total cost of ticket = total number of family members*the price of each ticket

so, total cost of ticket =5*x

so, total cost of ticket =5x

now, we have

each family member buys a boxed lunch for $6.50

so, total cost of lunch box = total number of family members*price of each lunch box

so, total cost of lunch box = 5*6.50

total cost of trip = total cost of ticket+total cost of lunch box

we are given

total cost of trip is $248.50

now, we can plug values

and we get

248.50=5x+5*6.50

now, we can solve for x

248.50=5x+32.5

248.50-32.5=5x+32.5-32.5

216=5x

\frac{5x}{5} =\frac{216}{5}

x=43.2

so,

the price of each train ticket is $43.2..........Answer
