Answer:
x = 1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 4 = 9x + 3
3x + 1 = 9x
1 = 6x
1/6 = x
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
Answer:
I don't think I know it sorry
The answer will be 250 because you divide 2 by 500
Using the compound interest formula,
A = P(1+r)^n
A = 17000
r = 4% quarterly
n = 8yrs = 32 quarters of a year
P = ?
17000 = P(1+4%)^32
P = $[17000/((1+4%)^32)]
