Assume that the cheetah travels an average of 40 mph to go from its resting place to a rock near a river. On the return trip to its resting place, the cheetah travels an average of 70 mph. If the cheetah traveled for 15 minutes, how many minutes did the return trip take to the nearest minute and second? Set up the table as follows. Label the rows “To the River” and “From the River.” Label the columns “Distance,” “Rate,” and “Time (in Hours).” Let t represent the unknown quantity in the problem. Fill in the table.

9.55 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

x hours to go to the river

0.25-x hours to come back, since 15 minutes is 0.25 hr.

to the river 40 mph * x hours =40x miles

from the river 70 mph (0.25-x) hours=17.5-70x

those two are equal

40x=17.5-70x

110x=17.5

x=17.5/110=0.159 hours

9.55 minutes

step-by-step explanation:

answer:

total cost for tiles and paints is $924.  

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given that a community hall is in the shape of a cuboid. the hall is 40m long 15m high and 3m wide.

the paint will be required for 4 walls and ceiling.

let us find area of walls and ceiling.

therefore, the area of walls and ceiling is 1410 square meters.

given: cost for 10 litre of paint is $10 and 10 litre paint covers 25 square meter. therefore,

therefore, the total painting cost is $564.

tiles will be required for floor. let us find the area of floor.

given: 1m squared floor tiles costs $3. so,

therefore, the total tiles cost is $360.

now let us find combined total cost of tiles and paint.

therefore, the combined total cost of tiles and paint is $924.
