Car a and car b are traveling at different speeds. car a can travel 175 miles in the same time it takes car b to travel 125 miles. if car a travels 20 mph faster than car b, how fast (in mph) is car b traveling? (enter an exact number.)

The speed of car B is 50 mile per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The Distance travel by car A = 175 miles

The Distance travel by car B = 125 miles

The Time taken by both car A and B is same = T hours

Let The speed of car B = S mile per hour

So, The speed of car A = ( S + 20 ) mile per hour

Now, Time =

So , For Car A ,

T =

For Car B ,

T =

So,  =

Or, 175 × S = 125 × ( S + 20 )

Or, 175 S - 125 S = 125 × 20

Or, 50 S = 2500

∴  S =

I.e S = 50 mph

And S + 20 = 50 + 20 = 70 mph

The speed of car A = 70 mph

The speed of car B = 50 mph

Hence The speed of car B is 50 mile per hour  Answer

$53.50

step-by-step explanation:

you have to subtract the amount of money chuck earned ($72.50) by the cost of the gas for the mower ($11.25) and the new string for the trimmer he bought ($7.75).

72.50-11.25=61.25

and then subtract $61.25 by the second thing he bought (the new string for the trimmer)

61.25-7.75=53.5

so in total it's $53.50 (53 dollars and 50 cents)
