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.

#SPJ1
Answer:
0.0476
Step-by-step explanation:
4/84=0.0476
3 is no cuz obtuse angle is >90 degrees, all the angles together must equal 180 degrees, and if you try it, you get no. 5 is 25% of 45, which is $11.25.
Complete question is;
Peter drew two rays, AC and AP with A as a common endpoint. Which of the following statements
might describe Peter's drawing?
I. AC and AP are parallel.
II. PAC is an angle
III. AC and AP are perpendicular
A. I and II
B. II and III
C. I and 111
D. I, II, and III
Answer:
Option B: II & III
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that Peter drew two rays which are AC and AP.
We are told that A is a common endpoint.
If A is a common endpoint, it means the 2 rays interaction point at A is at an angle.
The angle could also be 90° which means it's possible that the rays AC and AP are perpendicular.
Thus, the correct statements that describe his drawing are: II & III
