Doreen can maintain a speed of 7 miles per hour which is 70% of Irenes speed. If they meet as planned what is the distance between houses? Answer by checkley77(12844) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! D=RT
7 MPH IS DOREEN'S SPEED.
7=.7X
X=7/.7
X=10 MPH FOR IRENE'S SPEED.
D=(7+10)4
D=17*4
D=68 MILES FROM HOUSES TO THE LUNCH PLACE.
