Two cars that are 150 miles apart start driving toward each other on parallel roads. The average speed of the first car is 60 mi

les per hour. The average speed of the second car is 55 miles per hour. Which equation can be used to determine t, the time it takes for the two cars to pass each other?
A table showing Rate in mile per hour, Time in hours, and Distance in miles. The first row shows First Car and has 60, t, and 60 t. The second row shows Second Car and has, 55, t, and 55 t.

60t – 55t = 0
60t + 55t = 1
60t + 55t = 150
60t – 55t = 150

Answer:

60T + 55T = 150

Step-by-step explanation:

T(60+55)=150\\115T=150

T=150/115=1.304 hr

The cars takes 1.304 hrs (1h 18 min aprox) to pass each other

Hope this helps

Suppose that the amount of time it takes to build a highway varies directly with the length of the highway and inversely with th
KatRina [158]

Answer:

21 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are to use proportionality to find the solution to the question.

We were made to know that the time taken to build the highway is varied directly with the length and inversely with the number of workers.

Let us make a mathematical representation for this.

Let the time be t, number of workers be w and length be l

t is directly proportional to l and inversely proportional to w

Mathematically;

t = kl/w

Where k is the constant of proportionality.

Let’s find the value of k

150 workers built 12 miles of highway in 14 weeks ; plug these in the equation to get k

14 = k * 12/150

k = 150 * 14/12 = 175

Now we want to get t given w and l

from ;

t = kl/w

We can get t; where l = 15 and w = 125

t = 175 * 15/125

t = 21 weeks

How did you get -1? In the problem xm=x+z ,for x
lys-0071 [83]
Remember, we can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides

and distributive proeprty, reversed
ab+ac=a(b+c)

xm=x+z
minus x from both sides
xm-x=z
xm-1x
undistribute x
x(m-1)=z
divide both sides by (m-1)
x=\frac{z}{m-1}

What is the main advantage of using money instead of bartering? A. Many more people today use money than bartering to get goods
alekssr [168]

D. people do not have to have a good or service that another person wants

Reason: Money gives people a universal unit of value. For example, If I needed a toothbrush and I have a pair of scissors, In order for me to get a tooth brush is to trade my scissors with someone else who has a tooth brush and wants scissors. As you can see, this isn't practical. If I had money, I will only need to find someone who has a tooth brush.
