John can run six miles per hour and Bill can run four miles per hour. If they run in opposite directions for two hours, then how far apart will they be?
Going in opposite directions, they separate at the rate of (90 + 120) = 210 miles per hour.They are 735 miles apart after (735/210) = 3.5 hours.
... this is easy :l you need to do your own homework but I'll help :l 63 mph x 3 hours = ? 189 Miles Traveled 72 mph x 3 hours = ? 216 Miles Traveled They are traveling opposite directions so you add them together. 189 Miles + 216 Miles = ? 405 Miles Apart.
If they are traveling in opposite directions, then they are traveling away from each other at a speed of 95 miles per hour. 380/95=4 They have been traveling for four hours.
3.5 hours [A+]
After 1 hour, Linda will be 7 miles from the starting point, and Dave will be 9 miles away from that point but in the opposite direction. So they will be exactly (9+7=) 16 miles apart after 1 hour. They are moving apart at a rate of 16 mph. After 1.5 hours they will be exactly 24 miles apart.
4 hours (goose) and 10 hours (heron)
9 mph and 18 mph
To calculate the time it takes for the two boats to be 162 miles apart, you can use the formula: time = distance / relative speed. The relative speed of the two boats is the sum of their speeds, which is 25 mph + 29 mph = 54 mph. Then, time = 162 miles / 54 mph = 3 hours. So, it will take 3 hours for the two boats to be 162 miles apart.
There isn't enough information to give you a definitive answer. We also need to know in which direction they are riding. If they are both riding in a straight line in the same direction, they will be 3 miles apart at the end of the first hour, 6 miles apart at the end of the second our, and 23 miles apart at the end of 7 hours and 40 minutes. If they are both riding in a straight line in opposite directions, they will be 17 miles apart after the first hour, and 23 miles apart after 1 hour, 21 minutes, and 10.6 seconds.
The distance travelled by each train is equal to its speed in miles per hour multiplied by the time travelled in hours. Since there are 60 minutes per hour, 90 minutes = 90/60 = 1.5 hours. Since no directions are given, presumably the trains are traveling in the same direction or in opposite directions. The distance between the trains will be 1.5(60 - 50) if the trains are traveling in the same direction and 1.5(60 + 50) if the trains are traveling in opposite directions. These values are 15 miles and 165 miles respectively.
Never, since they are travelling in opposite directions.. . . but probably not the one the algebra book's authors intended....If you assume that "opposite directions" means the cars are travelling towards each other, their closing speed (i.e. relative speed) is 105 mph. That means they'll meet in 100/105 hours, or slightly more than 57 minutes.
depends on the direction of the planes if they are going in opposite directions it will take one and a half hours. If they are going in the same direction, it will take ten and a half hours This assumes they fly in a straight line
