Two buses leave towns 760 mi apart at the same time and travel toward each other. One bus travels

18 mi/h slower than the other. If they meet in

5 hours, what is the rate of each bus?

Let x be the rate of the slower bus, in miles per hour.

Then the rate of the faster bus is (x+18) mph, according to the condition.

The slower bus covered 5x miles before the buses meet each other.

The faster bus covered 5*(x+18) miles before they meet each other.

The sum of distances covered by buses is 3x + 5*(x+18).

It is equal exactly 760 miles. It gives you an equation

5x + 5(x+18) = 760.

Simplify and solve for x:

5x + 5x + 90 = 760,

10x = 760 - 90,

10x = 670  >  x = 670%2F10 = 67.

Thus you found the rate of the slower bus. It is 67 miles per hour.

Then the rate of the faster bus is 67 + 18 = 85 mph.

Solved.

total amount of money that he should pay if he has not used his duty free exemption is $98

step-by-step explanation:

given a united states citizen returning to the states declares the following items at the customs office: 3 shirts at $8.50 each 2 dresses at $27.50 each 1 pair of gold cuff links at $17.50 per pair. we have to find how much he pay

cost of 3 shirts if one cost at $8.50 is

cost of 2 dresses if one cost at $27.50 is  

cost of 1 pair of gold cuff at $17.50

so, total amount of money that he should pay if he has not used his duty free exemption is   $25.5+$55+$17.50=$98
