FInding Per Hour: Solving

Tyler starts walking at 2 miles per hour. An hour later, Nadine starts jogging along same route at 6 miles per hour. How long will it take Nadine to catch up with Tyler?

+ more- less
Asked by Barbie from Patriot, OH

Jim's Answer:

Let t = the time it takes for Nadine to catch up

Distance Tyler goes in time t is

D = 2 +2t

Distance Nadine goes in time t is

D = 6t

Since the distance each goes is the same

6t = 2 + 2t

4t = 2

t = ½ hour

Dividing fractions that contain exponents?

I can't seem to figure this one out.  It's more complicated than others I've been doing.  Thank you for your help and explanation!

 

27n2-147

3n2-16n+21

Divided by...

15n2+32n-7

n2-9n+18

 

I know the second fraction needs to be flipped for multiplication so it would become:

n2-9n+18

15n2+32n-7

Next is factoring but I can't seem to figure it.

Jim's Answer:

That fact that there are only 2 term in 27n2-147 may suggest it is a perfect square. And after dividing by 3 it is! 3(9n2-49). Factor each quadratic and cancel and you will find the answer.
