Question 153613: hi,
my name is jay, and i am struggling with this question. the question is:
if a pitcher throws a baseball 90 miles per hour, how many seconds does it take for the ball to reach home plate?
here's what i've tried:
time equals distance divided by speed
i divide 60.5 feet by 90 mph, and i get .6722 seconds.
Then i thought, can i really solve this equation this way? can i use feet in distance as the numerator and miles per hour in divisor. I'm not sure how to solve this.
thank you so much for your time. Jay

Question 154662: I keep getting stuck on soving for T & B on the following Please help :)
This is an example in the book
B=0.20[$100,000-0.40($100,000-B)]
B=0.20($100,000-$40,000 +0.4B)
B=0.20($60,000 + 0.4B)
B=$12,000+0.08B
0.92B=$12,000
B=$13,043.48
