Sry it’s blurry but how do i solve this i need like a real in depth explanation

D = r*t is the equation they give you
D = distance
r = rate (aka speed)
t = time

For Amanda, her equation is 
D = 3.5*t
since she walks for t hours and does so at a speed of 3.5 mph

For Alexis, her equation is
D = 4*t
for similar reasons: she walks for t hours at 4 mph

Add up the two distances 3.5*t and 4*t
This sum must be equal to 4. Why 4? Because the total distance between the two houses is 4 miles. The two friends meet at some point between the houses. So Amanda's distance adds up with Alexis' distance to get the total.

We have this equation
3.5*t + 4*t = 4

Solve for t
3.5*t + 4*t = 4
(3.5+4)*t = 4
7.5*t = 4
7.5*t/7.5 = 4/7.5
t = 4/7.5
t = 0.53333 (this is approximate; the 3s go on forever)

Rounding to the nearest hundredth (2 decimal places) we get t = 0.53

So it takes roughly 0.53 hours for the two friends to meet which is the final answer

Note: 0.53 hours is equal to 31.8 minutes
Another note: due to rounding errors, the true time in minutes should be 32 since (4/7.5)*60 = 32. However, the teacher wants the answer in hours (not minutes). So the answer is still 0.53

i = 2 / - 5

step-by-step explanation:

evaluation of ( 2 - 4 ) ( p + q ) when p = 2 and q = 5 i, by putting values of p and q,                                                                    

0 = ( 2 - 4 ) ( p + q )0 = ( 2 - 4 ) ( 2 + 5 i ),   by multiplying these0 = ( 4 + 10 i - 8 - 20 i )0 = 4 - 8 + 10 i - 20 i0 = - 4 -10 i   0 = 2 ( - 2 - 5 i )0 / 2 = - 2 - 5 i- 2 - 5 i = 0- 5 i = 2i = 2 / - 5
