  31. Time to mow one acre (hours) 5.6 – Applications Fraction of the job completed in one hour James Andy Together 2 8 x LCD: 8x hrs.

  32. Time to pump one basement (hours) Fraction of the job completed in one hour 5.6 – Applications 1st pump 2nd pump Together A sump pump can pump water out of a basement in twelve hours. If a second pump is added, the job would only take six and two-thirds hours. How long would it take the second pump to do the job alone? 12 x

  33. Time to pump one basement (hours) Fraction of the job completed in one hour 5.6 – Applications 1st pump 2nd pump Together 12 x

  34. 5.6 – Applications LCD: 60x hrs.

  35. 5.6 – Applications Distance, Rate and Time Problems If you drive at a constant speed of 65 miles per hour and you travel for 2 hours, how far did you drive?

  36. 5.6 – Applications A car travels six hundred miles in the same time a motorcycle travels four hundred and fifty miles. If the car’s speed is fifteen miles per hour faster than the motorcycle’s, find the speed of both vehicles. x t 450 mi t x + 15 600 mi

  37. 5.6 – Applications 450 mi x t t x + 15 600 mi LCD: x(x + 15) x(x + 15) x(x + 15)

  38. 5.6 – Applications x(x + 15) x(x + 15) Motorcycle Car

  39. 5.6 – Applications A boat can travel twenty-two miles upstream in the same amount of time it can travel forty-two miles downstream. The speed of the current is five miles per hour. What is the speed of the boat in still water? boat speed = x t 22 mi x - 5 t 42 mi x + 5

  40. 5.6 – Applications boat speed = x x - 5 t 22 mi 42 mi x + 5 t LCD: (x – 5)(x + 5) (x – 5)(x + 5) (x – 5)(x + 5)
