Answer: 3.5 h
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>1. Data:</u>
a) s = 740 miles / h
b) d = 2,567 miles
c) t = ?
<u>2. Equation:</u>
<u>3. Solution:</u>
- Solve the equation for t:
s = d / t ⇒ t = d / s
t = 2,567 miles / (740 miles/h) ≈ 3.47 h ≈ 3.5 h
How many times do 15 minutes fit into one hour? 4 times: 4*15=60 mins.
So that means that 4 times per hour 10 flights appear, and in total 4*10=40 planes arrive over one hour!
3x-4y=12
4y=3x-12
y=(3x-12)/4
y=(3/4)x-3
Let's represent h with the number of hours:
15h ≥ 200
h ≥ 200/15
h ≥ 40/3
h ≥ 13 1/3
He has to work at least 13 1/3 hours.
