Let the time taken by Vince to complete the race was x hours.
Maury completed the race 1.5 hours faster. This means Maury complete the race in (x - 1.5) hours.
Average Speed of Maury = 16 miles per hour
Average Speed of Vince = 12 miles per hour
Distance = Speed x Time.
For Maury:
Distance = 16(x - 1.5)
For Vince:
Distance = 12x
Since the distance covered by both was the same, we can equate the two equations as:
16(x - 1.5) = 12x
16x - 24 = 12x
4x = 24
x = 6
This means Vince complete the race in 6 hours.
Distance = Speed x Time = 12 x 6 = 72 miles
Thus, the total distance of the race was 72 miles.
Two angles are complementary when they add up to 90 degrees<span>
</span><span>smaller angle = x
</span><span>larger angle = 9x
</span>
x + 9x = 90
10x = 90
x = 90/10
x = 9° ← smaller angle
larger angle = 9x = 9 * 9 = 81°

If I'm correct 158 and S are supplementary angles, meaning that they both must add up to 180, so to find the answer subtract 158 from 180
180 - 158 = 22
S = 22
Each of 4 friends has 2 balloons
4 x 2 = 8
herself has one
so 8 + 1 = 9
answer: Total 9 balloons
