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

Please help me with this i really need help
kifflom [539]

Answer:

70%

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of students with an April birthday and candles is in the upper left, 14. That’s the “part” Percentage is part/whole x 100.

To figure out the “whole”, you need to add up all the students in the first row of the table, because those are the April birthdays. 14 + 6 = 20

14/20 = 0.7 x 100 = 70%
