Let x be the distance from Syracuse where they pass. The first car travels a distance of x in time x/65 while the second car travels a distance 240-x in time (240-x)/55. They pass at the same time after leaving their starting points so x/65=(240-x)/55.
Cross-multiplying we get: 55x=65(240-x)=15600-65x, 120x=15600, x=15600/120=130 miles.
They pass 130 miles from Syracuse.
$69.24 is the correct answer because 56.75 multiplied by 1.22 is 69.24
Answer: Assuming that you mean 1in:2ft the model house would be 13 inches wide.
Step-by-step explanation: well 1 is half of 2 right? So if you want to get the numbers easier to use then just divide that 26 by 2 and then you get the scale 1in:1ft. From there it is easy, 13 feet of the real house= 13 inches in the model house
Answer:
75°
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 180° in a triangle, so using the ratios and the 180° setup an equation. Solve for x.
5x + 9x + 10x = 180
24x = 180
24x/24 = 180/24
x = 7.5
To find the largest angle measure, use 10x since 10 is bigger than 5 and 9.
10x
10(7.5)
75°
