Y=k/x
2=k/8
k=16
the answer is A
Step 1: If there is a common factor, factor out the GCF. Step 2<span>: Identify the number of terms: (i) If polynomial has two terms, convert polynomial into difference of two squares or sum of two cubes or difference of two cubes.</span>
The answer to your question is 15
Let the distance of the first part of the race be x, and that of the second part, 15 - x, then
x/8 + (15 - x)/20 = 1.125
5x + 2(15 - x) = 40 x 1.125
5x + 30 - 2x = 45
3x = 45 - 30 = 15
x = 15/3 = 5
Therefore, the distance of the first part of the race is 5 miles and the time is 5/8 = 0.625 hours or 37.5 minutes
The distance of the second part of the race is 15 - 5 = 10 miles and the time is 1.125 - 0.625 = 0.5 hours or 30 minutes.
