Answer:
12t -3 = 18t
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
d = your friends distance in miles
t = time in hrs
Your equation:
d - 3 = 18t (1)
Because you are 3 miles behind your friend
Your Friend's equation:
d = 12t (2)
To find the amount of time t it takes for you to catch up with your friend,
Substitute (2) into (1)
d - 3 = 18t
12t - 3 = 18t
Equation to find the amount of time t it takes for you to catch up to your friend is 12t - 3 = 18t
Solving the equation
12t - 3 = 18t
Collect like terms
12t - 18t = 3
-6t = 3
t = 3/-6
= -0.5
t = 1/2 hour
Time can not be negative, therefore it will take 1/2 an hour to catch up with your friend
Answer:
8.7
Step-by-step explanation:
Since a square has equal side lengths, the formula for area is s^2, where s stands for side. Since we are given the area, s^2=75 square feet. Take the square root of both sides to get s is equivalent to the square root of 75 square feet. When this becomes a decimal, it is 8.66 feet. Since we are supposed to round to the nearest tenths, it rounds up to 8.7 feet per side length
