For this case, the first thing we must take into account is the following definition:
d = v * t
Where,
d: distance
v: speed
t: time
Substituting values we have:
Trip 1:
50 = v * t1
We cleared t1:
t2 = (50) * (1 / v)
Trip 2:
300 = (3 * v) * t2
We cleared t2:
t2 = (300/3) * (1 / v)
t2 = (100) * (1 / v)
Rewriting:
t2 = 2 (50) * (1 / v)
t2 = 2 * t1
Answer:
His new time compared with the old time was:
Twice the old time.
t2 = 2 * t1.
Volume of a cone = 3.14 x 0.75^2 x 2/3
= 3.14 x 0.5625 x 2/3
= 1.76625 x 2/3
= 1.1775 = 1.18 feet^3
He can conclude that the system of equations has no solution since one equation in it always results with false equivalency.
Hope this helps.
