0.7 miles
Explanation:
42/60 = 0.7
The increase in price is 140% of the original price.
The original price was 100% of the original price since 100% is a whole quantity.
Now the new price is 140% more than it was, so the new price is
100% + 140% of the old price.
100% + 140% = 240%
Now we find 240% of $50.
To find a percent of a number, multiply the percent by the number.
240% of $50 =
= 240% * $50
= 2.4 * $50
= $120

Answer:
12t -3 = 18t
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
d = your friends distance in miles
t = time in hrs
Your equation:
d - 3 = 18t (1)
Because you are 3 miles behind your friend
Your Friend's equation:
d = 12t (2)
To find the amount of time t it takes for you to catch up with your friend,
Substitute (2) into (1)
d - 3 = 18t
12t - 3 = 18t
Equation to find the amount of time t it takes for you to catch up to your friend is 12t - 3 = 18t
Solving the equation
12t - 3 = 18t
Collect like terms
12t - 18t = 3
-6t = 3
t = 3/-6
= -0.5
t = 1/2 hour
Time can not be negative, therefore it will take 1/2 an hour to catch up with your friend
