Answer:

  3.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The separation distance is increasing at the rate of 20 mph + 60 mph = 80 mph. It will be 280 miles after ...

  time = distance/rate

  time = (280 mi)/(80 mi/h) = 3.5 h

The two cars will be 280 miles apart after 3 1/2 hours.

<h3> <u>Answer</u><u> </u><u>:</u></h3>
  • Value of x is 1.5 cm
<h3><u>Explaination :</u></h3>

In the question it is given that the length is 4 cm more than the width so let us assume the width as x.

Therefore,

  • Length (l) = 4 + x
  • Breadth = x

As we know the formula of calculating the perimeter of rectangle is,

  • P = 2 (l + b)

Here,

  • P is perimeter
  • l is length
  • b is breadth

Putting their respective values,

=> 14 = 2 (x + 4 + x)

=> 14 = 2 × (x + 4 + x)

=> 14 = 2x + 8 + 2x

=> 14 = 4x + 8

=> 14 - 8 = 4x

=> 4x = 6

=> x = 6 / 4

=> x = 3 / 2

=> x = 1.5

Emma has saved £1.35 in 5p coins. How many 5p coins does Emma have?
valentinak56 [21]
To make calculation easier, we first multiply
1.35 × 100 = 135

then we need to find how many groups of 5 are there in 135.
to do so, we simply take 
135 ÷ 5 = 27

therefore, the answer is <u>27.</u>
