Two cars are 400 miles apart when they start moving towards each other. the speed of the first car is 30 mph. the second car moves 20mph faster than the first car. after how many our will the cars meet

5 hr.

Step-by-step explanation:

this is because one car is moving at 30 miles an hour and the other at 30+20 miles an hour = 50mph. so after 1 hour one car would have gone 30 miles and the other 50 = 80 altogether not 400 yet. After 2 hours one car would have gone 60 miles and the other 100 = 160 not 400 yet. ECT... After five hours one car has gone 150 mile (30mph*5hr = 150miles) and the other 250miles (59mph*50hr = 250miles) = 400, since 150+250=400. Therefore it would take 5hr for the cars to meet. and crash ._.

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)
