Answer:
a) Ans: 8.5 miles per hour
b) Ans: 46.75 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Speed = Distance/Time
8.5/1h = 8.5 miles per hour
b) Distance = Speed x Time
8.5 miles per hour x 5.5h = 46.75 miles
$360.00*.28= 100.80
<span>Or do a portion </span>
<span>28%/100%=100.8/x </span>
<span>Then cross multiply </span>
<span>10080=28x </span>
<span>x=360</span>
Let's assume that the faster car has a 2 mile "head start".
The faster car is 1.2 times faster (48/40) than the slower car.
It will take five 2 mile trips to "catch" the other car.
Five 2 mile trips will take 5 * 40 seconds = 200 seconds.
