Travel_Word_Problems/516464: How long would it take a car to travel a distance of 1.5 miles at the rate of 220 miles per hour?
d = r * t so we know the distance is 1.5 miles and the rate is 220 mph:
1.5 = 220t
We need to isolate t so we divide each side of the equation by 220:
1.5/220 = t
Simplify further:
t = 0.0068

A car left seattle traveling 45mph. A second car left from the same place one hour later on the same road traveling 60mph. How long will it take the second car to catch up with the first car. Which of these is the correct second eqaution for the problem?
----------------
The 1st car is 45 miles ahead when the 2nd car starts.
The 2nd car gains on the 1st at 15 mi/hr (60-45)
45/15 = 3 hours to catch up.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
the area of a regular polygon is 360 square cm. If the apothem is 9 cm and one side measures 16 cm, how many sides does this polygon have?
-----------
Area using side length:
Area = ns^2*cot(180/n)/4
For n = 4, Area = 256
For n = 5, Area = 440.44
---------------
The area increases with n, so there is no integral solution.
