Respuesta :

It would take 2 hours and 38 minutes for Jacob’s dad to get from highway 125 to highway 17 if he is traveling along highway 84 at 65mph (to the nearest minute)

What are parallel lines?

Parallel lines are those in a plane that, no matter how far we extend them, never cross. The distance between the parallel lines never changes since they never cross.

Name different types of parallel lines.

Vertical, diagonal, and horizontal are all types of parallel lines.

The question implies that routes 125, 143, and 17 run parallel to one another. This means they do not intersect. So using parallel lines property:

[tex]\frac{59}{52} =\frac{x}{99}\\ x=112.3 min\\112.3+59=171.3 min\\\frac{171}{65} =2.635 hours\\=2 hrs 38 min[/tex]

So it took 2 hrs and 38 min.
