Answer :Anita's age = 7 years

Basilio's age = 2.5 years

Step 1. Assign variables to Anita's and Basilio's ages.

Anita's age = A

Basilio's age = B

 

Step 2. Use the information given to form two equations.

Anita is 4-1/2 years older than Basilio

A = 4.5 + B

 

Three times Anita's age added to six times Basilio's age is 36

3A + 6B = 36

 

Step 3. Substitute the value of A from first equation in to the second equation and solve for B

3(4.5 + B) + 6B = 36

13.5 + 3B + 6B = 36

13.5 + 9B = 36

9B = 36 - 13.5

9B = 22.5

B = 22.5/9 = 2.5

 

Step 4. Find the value of A

A = 4.5 + 2.5 = 7

 

Answer:

Anita's age = 7 years

Basilio's age = 2.5 years

if a motercycle is moving at a constant speed down the highway of 40 km/hr, how long would it the motorcycle to travel 10 km
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

15 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

First, the motorcycle goes at a speed of 40 km/hr.

The question asks for how long it would take to travel 10 km.

Well, there are 60 minutes in an hour, since we will be translating into minutes.

Also, 10 km is 1/4 of 40 km, so it would make sense that the time length would be 1/4 of an hour as well.

1/4 of 60 minutes is 15 minutes.  So it takes 15 minutes for the motorcycle to travel 10 km.

Now, if all this wordy stuff is too much to comprehend, you can also solve using proportional relationships.

\frac{40km}{60min}=\frac{10km}{xmin}

Now cross multiply:

40km*xmin=10km*60min\\40x=600

Divide both sides by 40:

\frac{40x}{40}=\frac{600}{40}\\x=15

Again, this shows that it wouls take 15 minutes for the motorcycle to travel 10 km.
