A motorcycle breaks down and the rider has to walk the rest of the way to work. The motorcycle was being driven at 45 mph, and the rider walks at a speed of 6 mph. The distance fro home to work is 25 miles, and the total time for the trip was 2 hours. How far did the motorcycle go before it broke down?
A motorcycle breaks down and the rider has to walk the rest of the way to work...
niggers?
t=4
Faggot?
20 minutes
15 miles
Depend on where the rider left from. I can't just assume he left from home since it's not told on the problem.
true
may i ask how you guys got these answers?
off the top of my head but
it would take homie two hours to walk 12 miles
but if he had driven 13 miles on the motorcycle that wouldve already taken 15 minutes from his total of two hours. so actually the answer is not 15 its 16
actually im starting to think theres no way it took him 2 hours to get to work
20 minutes guy here
2 hours of travel time makes it a very safe assumption that he walked for a least an hour which takes 6 miles off, which leaves 19m.
I then estimated a bit and divided the remaining hour in 3 and the speeds by 3. 20mins for 15m of bike time makes 4 miles worth of walking time. so He rode his bike for 20minutes or 15miles
but if he rode the bike for 15 miles, 45 miles an hour means 20 minutes
that leaves an hour and 40 minutes of walking
which adds up to a little over 9 miles which does not add up to 25 miles
which means he couldnt have taken 2 hours to get to work!
he walks at 6mph thats 2miles every 20 minutes,
4 + 6 is 10, + 15 is 25. I don't see youre problem
x/45+(25-x)/6 = 2
x=15
>doing some underage's algebra homework
20 minutes on a bike = 15 miles.
1 hour 40 minutes of walking left = 10 miles.
Jesus this is trivial.
>The motorcycle was being driven at 45 mph
falling off the motorcycle at 45mph, the dude's dead.
how can a dead fag walk @ 6 mph?
ok ok. like i said i did it off the top of my head so i wanted to be sure
MATH
"walks 6mph" do understand how fast of a powerwalking queef this faggot must be to naturally walk so fast?
This guy regularly strokes like there's a wild pack of niggers behind him.
what kind of motorcycle was it? makes a diff
checked
thanks bb
6 miles per hour * X hours + 45 miles per hour * (2 - X) hours = 25 miles
6x + 45(2-x) = 25
6x + 90 - 45x = 25
90 - 39x = 25
65 = 39x
x = 1.6667 hours spend walking
Meaning 0.3333 hours spent riding
At 45 miles per hour
That's 15 miles
So much unneeded yet hilarious profanity in a simple statement.
these make the most sense all others are ehh
