Answer:

32 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Let the total distance be x miles

Marks speed= 16miles per hour

Trisha's speed= 12 miles per hour

Trisha has covered 8 miles and has  (x-8) miles to finish line

We know that

Speed= distance/time

time= distance/speed

Hence the time taken for Mark to finish is

time= x/16---------------1

The time taken for Trisha to finish is

time= (x-8)/12-----------2

equate 1 and 2 above

x/16= (x-8)/12

cross multiply

16(x-8)= 12*x

16x-128= 12x

collect like terms

16x-12x= 128

4x=128

x= 128/4

x= 32 miles

Hence they will meet at exactly 32 miles along the way

Help please geometry !
Leona [35]
If you use the same technique from the first question, you can do:

5x+2=3x+42
2x=40
x=20

For the rest of the questions, please use the same technique if they are vertical because I can't solve all of the questions for you sorry.

omeli [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If we know that D is the midpoint, then 2x + 7 = 4(x-3). Doing the algebra on that gives us

2x + 7 = 4x - 12 and

19 = 2x so

x = 9.5

I really don't understand again explain please

Since 19 and 31 do not have a common factor, we know we need to make a ratio based on 19 and 31. We need to find the ratio of full parking spots to empty ones. This means that, since there are 19 full parking spots, that in the ratio 19 would be first. The ratio is 19:31
