Louisa ran at an average speed of five miles per hour along an entire circular park path. Calvin ran along the same path in the

docker41 [41]

Answer:

15 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x$ be the miles in the circular park path, $t_{L}$ the time Louisa takes to finish and $t_{C}$ the time Calvin takes to finish both in hours.

Then $x$ , the longitude is equal to the velocity times the time used to finish. So

$x=5t_{L}$

$x=6t_{C}$

And the difference between Louisa's time and Calvin' time is 30 minutes, half an hour. So:

$t_{C}=t_{L}-0.5$

Three equations, three unknowns, the system can be solved.

Equalizing the equation with x :

$5t_{L}=6t_{C}$

In this last equation replace $t_{C}$ with the other equation and solve:

$5t_{L}=6(t_{L}-0.5)\\ 5t_{L}=6t_{L}-3\\ 3=6t_{L}-5t_{L}\\ 3=t_{L}\\ t_{L}=3$

With Louisa's time find x:

$x=5t_{L}\\ x=5(3)\\ x=15$

To rent a jet ski at Hayden’s cost is $25 plus $3 per hour. At Austin’s, it costs $5 plus $8 per hour. At how many hours will th

Katen [24]

<u>At Hayden's:</u>

$(25+3)= \ 28+3 \ (2nd \ hour)=31+3 \ (3rd \ hour)=34+3 . . . \swarrow\swarrow \\ \ \Longrightarrow \Longrightarrow \Longrightarrow \Longrightarrow \Longrightarrow \Longrightarrow \Longrightarrow \Longrightarrow \Longrightarrow \Longrightarrow \Longrightarrow \boxed{34+3=37}= \ (4rth \ Hour)$

<u>At Austins:</u>

$(5+8)= \ (first \ hour) = 13+8= \ 21 = (2nd \ hour) \ 21+8=29= \ \swarrow \\ \longrightarrow \ 29=(3rd \ hour)=\boxed{ 29+8= (37)= \ ((Forth \ hour))}$

As we can see in both results, it would take them (4 hours) for the prices to be equaled.
