The answer to this is 50 minutes. by then the runner has gone 11 miles in an hour and 50min and the cyclist has gone 11 miles also
It should be 1 over 2 or 1 over 11 but im pretty sure its the first one I picked
Do you have a picture of the question??
The equation for the first part would be 4.50p+40=112.
This is because he earns 40 dollars in wages which doesn't change but the number of shoes he commissions, which would be 4.50 per pair. varies based on how many he commissions.
The answer to your second part would be 16.
To find the number, you subtract 40 from each side which gets you 4.50 = 72. From there you just divide which gets you 16.
Another easy way to do it would just be substituting until you find the right number like on a calculator but if you don't have a calculator on hand (let's say for a test), than the first way would be more effective.
