Jon recently drove to visit his parents who live 280 miles away. on his way there his average speed was 9 miles per hour faster than on his way home (he ran into some bad weather). if jon spent a total of 14 hours driving, find the two rates

11 mph and 20 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent his average speed going by r1 and his average speed returning by r2.  We know that r1 = r2 + 9.

Recall that distance = rate times time, so time = distance / rate.

Time spent going was (280 mi) / r1, or (280 mi) / (r2 + 9 mph).

Time spend returning was (280 mi) / r2.

The total time was 14 hrs, so (280 mi) / (r2 + 9 mph) + (280 mi) / r2 = 14 hrs

Note that there is only one variable here:  r2.  Find r2, and then from r2, find r1:

Dividing all 3 terms by 14 hrs yields:

  20            20

+ = 1

r2 + 9         r2

The LCD here is r2(r2 + 9).  Thus, we have:

      20r2                    (r2 +  9)(r2)

= 1 or  

 (r2 +  9)(r2)               (r2 +  9)(r2)

Then 20(r2) = (r2)^2 + 9(r2).  This is reducible by dividing all terms by r2:

20 = r2 + 9, or 11 = r2.  Then r1 = 11 + 9, or 20.

The two rates were 11 mph and 20 mph.

8

step-by-step explanation:

to find the amount of gift bags to use all the supplies, find the gcf or greatest common factor. this is the largest number which multiplies evenly into each term.

48 has factors: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12. 16, 24, 48

80 has factors: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 40, 80

64 has factors: 1, 2, 4, 8, 8, 16, 32, 64

the highest number factor they all share in common is 8. this means there will be 8 bags with 6 pencils, 10 markers, and 8 stickers in each bag.

the correct answer is x/3+10≥32

hope this !
