Jimmy drove to his cabin on the lake and back. it took 0.6 hours longer to go there than it did to come back. the average speed on the trip there was 46 km/h. the average speed on the way back was 52 km/h. how many hours did the trip there take

9.8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the distance be x km

T1 be time taken to go to trip

T2 be time taken to go back trip

Time =

Average speed on way of trip = 46 km/h

T1 =

Average speed on the way back = 52 km/h

T2 =

According to question

T1-T2 = 0.6

-= 0.6

=0.6

3x=1196×0.6

3x=717.6

x=

x=239.2 km

T1=

T1=5.2 hour

T2=

T2=4.6 hour

Total time taken to complete the trip = T1+T2

Total time = 5.2+4.6 =9.8

Hence the correct answer is 9.8 hours

aloha~! my name is zalgo and i am here to you out on this amazing day. to answer your question, yes, nonzero numbers can have a greatest common factor and that would be 1. still don't get it? let me considering every number is divisible by 1 and hence every number has 1 as a factor of theirs. so, if 2 nonzero numbers didn't share any gcf (greatest common factor), they would still have a factor in common and that would be 1.

i hope that this ! : p
