Answer:
32 jelly beans were in the bag
Step-by-step explanation:
We know 75% is 3/4 and that she ate 24, so divide 24 by 3 then multiply it by 4:
24/3= 8
8 x 4 = 32
Let 'x' be the distance from THE far bank where 700 is the distance to the NEAR bank
boat one has travelled 700 (rate = 700/unit time) boat two has travelled x rate = x / unit time
boat one then travels x + 400 more and boat two travels 700 + (700+x -400) more when they meet
The time is the same rate x time = distance distance/rate = time equate the distances divided by the respective rates
(700 + x + 400)/700 = ( x + 700 + (700+x-400) )/x
1100x + x^2 = 1400x + 700000
x^2-300x -700000 = 0 quadratic formula yields x = 1000
One boat travels 700 the other 1000 whe they first meet.....width of river = 700+ 1000 = 1700 m
The minimum speed will be calculated as follows:
Time taken from Toledo to Elkhart=(8.15-5.45)=2 1/2 hours
Distance=136 miles
thus the speed between Toledo and Elkhart= 136 miles/2.5=54.4 mph
Distance between Toledo and Chicago is 244 miles
Distance between Elkhart and Chicago=244-136=108 miles
time taken to travel between Elkhart and Chicago assuming that I left Elkhart at exactly 8:15 and reach at 10.30:
=10:30-8:15=2.25 hours
thus the speed will be:
speed=(108)/(2.25)=48 mph
Thus for us to get to Chicago by 10:30 a.m we should drive at 48 mph
