Answer:
john drove for 3 hours at a rate of 50 miles per hour and for 2 hours at 60 miles per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
3p : 8s
1p : (8/3)s
So for every one 'p' there is (8/3) 's'
Ratio of p to s is 1 : 8/3
The consecutive positive integers would be: x and (x+1),
We would have to solve the following equation to find these numbers:
x(x+1)-[x+(x+1)]=29
x²+x-2x-1=29
x²-x-30=0
x=[1⁺₋√(1+120)]/2
x=(1⁺₋11)/2
We have two possible solutions:
x₁=(1-11)/2=-5 then: (x+1)=-5+1=-4 This is not the solution.
x₂=(1+11)/2=6 then: (x+1)=6+1=7 This solution is right.
Answer: the numbers would be 6 and 7.
Hello!
Since we are given that the speed of sound in the air travels about 343 meters per second, we can multiply 343 meters per second by 5, and then we convert the meters to kilometers.
343 · 5 = 1715 meters per 5 seconds.
1000 meters are equal to 1 kilometer. So, we can divide 1715 by 1000 to convert meters to kilometers.
1715 / 1000 = 1.715
Therefore, the speed of sound in air is about 1.715 kilometers per 5 seconds.
3/4=x/60 so you divide 60 by 4 and get 15x3=45/60
