It takes 40 minutes more going up or 40/60 = 0.67 hours
more.
Let us say that:
t = the time required for him running down
t + 0.67 = time required for him running up
Since the distance of running up and down must be equal
therefore:
(3 miles / hr) * (t + 0.67) = (5 miles / h) * t
3 t + 2.01 = 5 t
2 t = 2.01
t = 1.005 hr
So the total length of the hike is:
length = 2 * (5 miles / hr) * (1.005 hr)
<span>length = 10.05 miles</span>
Answer:
Week 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Ben has $250 in the beginning. He saves $150 per week.
y = 150x + 250
Tim has $1,650 in the beginning. He spends $200 per week.
y = 1650 - 200x
We are trying to find which x-value produces the same y-value for both equations. You can do this by setting both equations equal to each other.
150x + 250 = 1650 - 200x
(150x + 250) + 200x = (1650 - 200x) + 200x
350x + 250 = 1650
(350x + 250) - 250 = (1650) - 250
350x = 1400
(350x)/350 = (1400)/350
x = 4
By week 4, they will have the same amount of money.
Plus 16 on both side and negative 12plus 16 is 4 so x equals 4
Answer:
y=-1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
first combine like terms:
5/y-3/y=-2-4
2/y=-6
now multiply y on both sides:
2=-6y
solve the equation
y=-1/3
Answer:
63 vehicles are not white
Step-by-step explanation:
Well you know that there are 175 total vehicles, and that 64% of those vehicles are white. Therefore the remaining percentage of vehicles must not be white.
100%-64%=36%
This means that 36% of the vehicles aren't white.
Now you must find what 36% of 175 is. The word "of" always signals for multiplication, which is exactly what you need to do here. First start by converting the percentage into decimal form:
36%=0.36
Now you can multiply
175 x 0.36 = 63
63 Vehicles are not white
