Noah and Andre are 15 miles apart on a bike path when they start biking towards each other. Noah rides at a constant speed of 4 miles per hour, and Andre rides at a constant speed of 2 miles per hour. How long does it take until Noah and Andre meet?
Choose one of these answers
2 hours
2 1/2 hours
1 3/4 hours
3 hours

2 1/2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply their rate by the number of hours

4*2=8

2*2=4

We want them to both equal 15 when added together

8+4≠15

So it's not 2 hours

So now our next answer choice is 2 1/2 hours

Ok that's easy, we can still use what we did from the last answer choice (2 hours)

Since it says 1/2 that means we can multiply the rate by 0.5 or divide it by 2

4/2=2

2/2=1

2+1=3

Now we add that to 8+4

8+4=12

2+1=3

12+3 = 15

Now that we've gotten 15 we know the rest of the answers are incorrect.

d

step-by-step explanation:

given

y + 3 = - 4(x - 2) ← distribute the parenthesis

y + 3 = - 4x + 8 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

y = - 4x + 5 → d

the answer is 844

step-by-step explanation:

it is 844 because if you add 836.50 + 7.5 you will get 844
