1) 29.74=.85X WHERE X IS THE ORIGINAL PRICE
X=29.74/.85
X=34.99 IS THE ORIGINAL PRICE.
PROOF
34.99-(.15*34.99)
34.99-5.25=29.74
-----------------------------------------------------
2) 1.08X=1.308
X=1.308/1.08
X=1.2111 AMOUNT OF THE INITIAL INVESTMENT.
------------------------------------------------------
3) SEEING AS BOTH VEHICLE SRAVEL @ A RATE OF 56 MPH AND A 1/4 HOUR SEPARATION WILL ALWAYS HAVE A SEPARATION OF 1/4 HOUR. THEY WILL NEVER MEET.
