meet.
HELPP

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

Speed of Timmy = 5 miles per hour

Speed of sam = 4 miles per hour and head start of 2 miles

To find:

Where Timmy and Sam will  meet.

Solution:

Let x be the number hours they ran in marathon and y be the total distance covered.

Speed of Timmy is 5 miles per hour. So, total distance covered by Timmy in x hours is

[tex]y=5x[/tex]       ...(i)

Speed of sam is 4 miles per hour and head start of 2 miles. So, total distance covered by sam in x hours is

[tex]y=4x+2[/tex]    ...(ii)

Now, equate (i) and (ii).

[tex]5x=4x+2[/tex]

[tex]5x-4x=2[/tex]

[tex]x=2[/tex]

The value of x is 2. It means they will meet after 2 hours.

Put x=2 in (i).

[tex]y=5(2)[/tex]

[tex]y=10[/tex]

It means, they will meet at 10 miles.

does 3^4 equal the same sum as 4^3

Answers

No. 3^4 is 81 and 4^3 is 64.

Explanation:
3^4 means 3 to the 4th power. That would mean multiplying 3 by itself 4 times. Don’t get it confused with 3 x 4. Each time you multiply, the next time will multiply by itself. Basically 3 x 4 is 12, then 12 x 4 is 48, and so on.

The m is the slope, so if your parents give you $20 and you spend $5 every week, your slope is -5 because your money is decreasing at a linear rate
