49x3= 147 so 10 reduction will make tim spend 137. 49x5= 245 so 20 reduction will make Craig spend 225. 225-147= 78 so Craig spends 78£ more than tim. All the offers state “X or Y” meaning it’s one or the other hence the ‘or’. Atleast that’s my interpretation of it.
Answer: which is choice C
=====================================================
Explanation:
This is a 30-60-90 triangle. The short leg is 5, as it's opposite the smallest angle. The long leg is times that of the short leg.
Let the distance be x miles
Time = Distance / speed
Time taken by Mike to go to his friend's house = x / 40 hours
Time taken by him to return = x / 45 hours
Total time = x / 40 + x / 45 = 4 hours
= 9x + 8x = 1440 miles
17x = 1440
= x = 1440 ÷ 7
= x = 84.706
Time taken to return home = 84.706 /45= 1.882 hours .
Therefore , Mike took 1.882 hours to reach home .
