Answer:

Number of trout caught by Bill = 16 trout

Number of trout caught by Steve = 30 trout

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of trout caught = 46

Number of trout caught by Steve = Number of trout caught by Bill + 14

Find:

Number of trout caught by Steve

Number of trout caught by Bill

Computation:

Assume;

Number of trout caught by Bill = a

Number of trout caught by Steve = a + 14

So,

Number of trout caught by Steve + Number of trout caught by Bill = Total number of trout caught

a + a + 14 = 46

2a = 46 - 14

2a = 32

a = 16

Number of trout caught by Bill = 16 trout

Number of trout caught by Steve = a + 14

Number of trout caught by Steve = 16 + 14

Number of trout caught by Steve = 30 trout

Elanso [62]

Answer:

12.8mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'w' represent her walking speed

->if her jogging speed is 8mph faster than her walking speed

Jogging speed=  w+8

Using the time equation i.e time = dist/speed

For walking when distance is 8miles

time = dist / speed= 8/w hrs

For jogging when distance is 13miles

time = dist / speed= 13/(w+8) hrs

Equating the time

jog time = walk time

13/(w+8) = 8/w

By cross multiplying it

13w = 8w + 64

5w = 64

w=64/5

w=12.8mph

Therefore, 12.8mph is her walking speed.

15% tip to 100 cents why does this make a unit less factor?
evablogger [386]
15% and the corresponding 0.15 is by necessity unit-less; it's just a multiplier.  If you run up a $1 bill and wish to tip 15%, multiply $1 by 0.15, obtaining $0.15.
Then the total due would be $1 plus $0.15, or $1.15.

Note that $0.15
                -------- = 0.15 is unit-less
                   $1
