1.) The formula for the volume of a rectangular box is V = lwh. If the length of a box is 22 inches, the height is 7 inches, and the total volume is 2,310 square inches, find the width of the box.
\n" ); document.write( "\"V+=+lwh\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2310+=+22%2Aw%2A7\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2310+=+154%2Aw\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"15+=+w\" the width is 15 inches
\n" ); document.write( "2.) A bus traveled on a level road for 3 hours at an average speed 20 miles per hour faster than it traveled on a winding road. The time spent on the winding road was 4 hours. Find the average speed on the level road if the entire trip was 305 miles.
\n" ); document.write( "Distance = Rate*Time
\n" ); document.write( "Winding road:
\n" ); document.write( "time = 4 hours
\n" ); document.write( "rate = r
\n" ); document.write( "distance = 4r
\n" ); document.write( "Level road:
\n" ); document.write( "time = 3 hours
\n" ); document.write( "rate = r + 20
\n" ); document.write( "distance = 3r + 60
\n" ); document.write( "4r + 3r + 60 = 305
\n" ); document.write( "7r = 245
\n" ); document.write( "r = 35
\n" ); document.write( "Level road speed = r + 20 = r + 35 = 55mph
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
