Answer:
50 minutes = 50/60 hours = 0.8333333333 hours
8 miles / 0.8333333333 hours = 9.60 miles per hour
9 miles / 9.60 miles per hour =
0.9375 hours = 56.25 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:
Note: Consider we need to find each type of coins he has.
Given:
Erin has quarters and nickels for a total of 16 coins.
The value of his coins is $2.60.
To find:
The number of each type of coins.
Solution:
Let x represent the number of quarters and y represent the number of nickels.
According to the question,
Total coins :
...(i)
Total value :
...(ii)
Multiply equation (i) by 0.25 and subtract the result from (ii).



Divide both sides by -0.20.

Put y=7 in (i).



Therefore, the number of quarters is 9 and number of nickels is 7.
Answer:
What's the speed? We can't possibly find distance with only just by knowing the time
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the base = x inches
So, h = 2x - 1
Area of triangle = 60 square inches
(1/2) * base *height = 60
(1/2) * x * (2x-1) = 60
x *(2x-1) = 60*2
2x² - x = 120
2x² - x - 120 = 0
2x² - 16x + 15x - 15*8 = 0
2x ( x - 8) + 15 (x -8) = 0
(x-8) (2x + 15 ) = 0
x- 8 = 0 {ignore 2x +1 as it will give negative value}
x = 8
Base = 8 inches
Height = 2*8 - 1 16 - 1 = 15 inches
