An item is regularly priced at 55$ . It is now priced at a discount of 60% off the regular price. What is the price now?

I believe it to be $22

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer

Average speed of the train = 90 km/h and average speed of the airplane = 360 km/h.

Explanation:-

If speed of train = x then the  speed of airplane = 4x km/h and we have the 2 equations

x = 1440 / (t + 12)                               (t = time taken by the train)

4x = 1440 / t(1)       (t = time taken by train)

Multiply the first equation by 4:-

4x = 5760 / (t + 12)(2)  

Combining equations (1) and (2):-

1440 / t =  5760 / (t + 12)

Cross multiplying:-

5760t = 1440t + 17,280

4320t = 17,280

t = 17280/4320

t = 4 hours

speed of train = 1440/ (4 + 12) = 90 km/h and speed of plane = 4*90 = 360 km/h.
