The distance between two cities is 36 km. Jaya walks 2 km 40 m and then takes a taxi to travel one city to another. Find the distance to travel by bus.

The distance traveled by bus is 33.96 km

Step-by-step explanation:

distance between two cities, d = 36 km = 36,000 m

distance traveled by leg by Jaya = 2 km 40 m = 2000 m + 40 m = 2040 m

The distance traveled by bus is given by the difference between the total distnace and the distance traveled by leg;

distance by bus = 36,000 m - 2040 m

distance by bus =  33960 m = 33.96 km

Therefore, the distance traveled by bus is 33.96 km

answer: city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.

step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

total annual rainfall a city record = 40 inches

this year, total rainfall recorded = 37.6 inches

number of inches of rainfall   is needed to match the record of 40 inches is given by

hence, city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.

47 - 90 = 43

43 - 180 = x

x = 137
