We first calculate Emily's rate by dividing the distance from her home to the post office by the time it took her to travel that distance. From 8:25 to 8:29 (and 30 seconds), there are exactly 4.5 minutes. Thus, the rate is equal to,
r = (0.75 miles) / (4.5 minutes) = 1/6 miles/min
Then, we divide the given distance from her home to school by the calculate rate to determine the total number of minutes it will take her to travel to school.
t = (3.42 miles)/(1/6 miles/min) = 20.52 minutes
Adding this to 8:25 will give us an answer of 8:45 and 31.2 seconds. She will not be late.
Answer:
0=26
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute
3(4−2)−5=6−7(−−2)
12−6−5=6-7(-x−2)
Combine like terms
12−6−5=6−7(−−2)
7−6=6−7(−−2)
Distribute
7−6=6−7(−−2)
7−6=6+7x+14
Answer
0=26
