Using proportions, it is found that Ermias is traveling at a rate of 11 mph and Jeremiah at a rate of 19 mph.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
Jeremiah travels 8 mph faster than Ermias, hence their velocities are:
x, x + 8
They travel in opposite directions, hence in one hour they are 2x + 8 apart.
In eight hours, the distance is 8(2x + 8), which is of 240 miles, hence:
8(2x +8) = 240
2x + 8 = 30
2x = 22
x = 11.
Then:
- x = 11 + 8 = 19 -> Jeremiah.

Multiply the fraction by both things in the parenthesis.
Alright, for 10, let's see 2(x+3). Use the distributive property to multiply 2 with x, which is 2x. Then, multiply 2 with 3, which is 6. Add them together to get 2x+6. For the second part, 4 times x is 4x and 4 times negative 2 is -8. Add them all up and you get 2x+6+4x-8=6x-2. Remember that you can't add a variable with other variables/just numbers, and a minus sign in front of terms in parenthesis means that everything in the parenthesis is negative!

Answer:
Buy the batteries and stereo online:
4.99*2= $9.98 +$90 = $99.98
6.99-5.00 = $1.99
99.98+1.99=$101.97

7.97*3= $23.85
5% tax = 1.19
10% off = 2.39
$23.85 - $1.19= $22.66
22.66 + 101.97= $124.63
All in store:
12+100+23.85= 135.85 - 6.45 = $129.40
All online:
9.98 + 90 + 26.85= 126.85 +$1.99 = 128.84
