Answer:
The answer is 450
Step-by-step explanation:
I got this equation:
x- the speed in which the turtle walks
5x+5(x+10)=4.5x+150+x*(150)/(x+10)
I got x=40, x=-50/11, but you can't have negative speed, so the turtle's speed is 40 meters per hour. After that, I just plugged in x onto one of the expressions and got 450.
This problem boils down to 5/6 - 1/4
To subtract these fractions you need a common denominator.
I'll use 12
The first fraction becomes 10/12 and the second fraction becomes 3/12
10/12-3/12 = 7/12
So Jacob is 7/12 of a foot taller than Linda.
Also note than since 12 inches = 1 foot, you could say Jacob is 7 inches taller than Linda
530 miles are travelled for every hour passed?
C. -2 because if you substitue the 2 in for x and then solve you get your answer
