Roberto overtakes Juanita at the rate of (7.7 mi)/(11 h) = 0.7 mi/h. This is the difference in their speeds. The sum of their speeds is (7.7 mi)/1 h) = 7.7 mi/h.

Roberto walks at the rate (7.7 + 0.7)/2 = 4.2 mi/h.
Juanita walks at the rate 4.2 - 0.7 = 3.5 mi/h.


_____
In a "sum and diference" problem, one solution is half the total of the sum and difference. If we let R and J be the respective speeds of Roberto and Juanita, we have
  R + J = total speed
  R - J = difference speed
Adding these two equations, we have
  2R = (total speed + difference speed)
  R = (total speed + difference speed)2 . . . . . as computed above

(x-1)^2+(2-x)^2-3(x-5)*(x-5)
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

-x^2+24x-70

Step-by-step explanation:

(x-1)^2+(2-x)^2-3(x-5)*(x-5)\\=> (x - 1)^2 + (2 - x)^2 - 3(x - 5)^2\\=> x^2 - 2x + 1 + 4 - 4x + x^2 - 3(x - 5)^2\\=> x^2 - 2x + 5 - 4x + x^2 - 3(x - 5)^2\\=> x^2 - 6x + 5 + x^2 - 3(x - 5)^2\\=> 2x^2 - 6x+5 - 3(x - 5)^2\\=> 2x^2 - 6x+5 - 3(x^2 - 10x + 25)\\=> 2x^2 - 6x+5  - 3x^2+30x-75\\=> -x^2 - 6x + 5 + 30x - 75\\=> -x^2 + 24x + 5-75\\=> -x^2+24x-70

Formula used =

(a-b)^2 = a^2+ 2ab + b^2

After the booster club sold 40 hotdogs at a football game, it had $90 in profit. After the next game, it had sold a total of 80
Ainat [17]
We can model the equation:y = m x + b, where y is the total profit and x is the number of hotdogs sold.The system of equations is:
90 = 40 m + b210 = 80 m + b---------------------b = 90 - 40 m210 = 80 m + 90 - 40 m210 - 90 = 40 m120 = 40 mm = 120 : 40m = 3b = 90 - 40*3b = 90 - 120b = - 30Answer: The equation is y = 3 x - 30

Lisa wants to buy material for her dress. If she buys 7metres, she is 1 dollar short. If she buys 5metres, 5 dollars is left ove
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

She has 15 dollar.

Explanation

If every meter costs 2 dollars, then 5 meter would cost 10 dollars and 7 meter would cost 14 dollar. Now we take a number when subtracted from 10, we get 5 dollar and when the same number subtracted from 14 we get 1 dollar left. Now if we take 15 dollar, you'll see that when you subtract 10 from it you get 5 dollar and when you subtract 14 from it you get 1 dollar. Therefore 15 satisfies the given condition in the question.

$15 - $10 = $5

$15 - $14 = $1
