Suppose that a cyclist began a 459 mi ride across a state at the western edge of the state, at the same time that a car traveling toward it leaves the eastern end of the state. If the bicycle and car met after 8.5 hr and the car traveled 34.4 mph faster than the bicycle, find the average rate of each.
Suppose that a cyclist began a 364 mi ride across a state at the western edge of the? state, at the same time that a car traveling toward it leaves the eastern end of the state. If the bicycle and car met after 6.5 hr and the car traveled 32.4 mph faster than the? bicycle, find the average rate of each. The? car's average rate is = mph. ?(Type an integer or a? decimal.) The? bicycle's average rate is= mph....

90) A boat can travel 9 mi downstream in the same amount of time it can travel 6 mi upstream. If the speed of the boat in still water is 10 mph, find the speed of the current. 91) When the wind is blowing at 40 mph, a plane flying at a constant speed can travel 800 mi with the wind in the same amount of time it can fly 600 mi against the wind. Find the speed of the...
Five runners ran a marathon before they used a new training program. The same five runners also ran a marathon after they went through the new training program. The following data represents the completion time of a marathon in minutes for each of the 5 runners before and after training with the new training program. The trainer wants to determine if the training program results in faster completion time of the marathon. (You can use Excel for solving this problem)....
29. Po Ling can bicycle 75 mi in the same time it takes her to drive 165 mi. If her driving rate is 30 mi/h faster than her rate on the bicycle, find each rate. 30. A private plane and a commercial plane take off from an airport at the same time for a city 720 mi away. The rate of the private plane is 180 mi/h less than that of the commercial plane. If the commercial plane arrives 2...
a. Two cyclists racing on parallel roads maintain constant speeds of 30 mi/hr and 25 mi/hr. The faster cyclists crosses the finish line one hour before the slower cyclist. How long was the race (in miles)? b. Because Boat A travels 1.5 times faster than Boat B, Boat B was given a 1.5-hr head start in a race. How long did it take Boat A to catch Boat B? c. A plane flew into a headwind and made the outbound...
