A=-.25+6.7t, s=.75+4.5t when Amir catches up a=s so:
-.25+6.7t=.75+4.5t add .25 to both sides
6.7t=1+4.5t subtract 4.5t from both sides
2.2t=1 divide both sides by 2.2
t=10/22 hr
t≈0.45 hr (to nearest hundredth)
Answer: 1/6^3 AND 1/216
Step-by-step explanation:
A negative number always goes to the denominator to become positive.
0.2 is the same as 2/10
18/(2/10)
As you may have learned in school, when you divide a fraction, you flip the fraction in the denominator, and change it to multiplication
18/(2/10) becomes 18 x (10/2)
multiply normally
18 x 10 = 180
divide to find answer
180/2 = 90
90 is your answer
hope this helps
Remember, when you meet this problem, flip the second fraction, and change the division sign into multiplication. (always second, never first (if first is a fraction)).
