1. A fruit vendor charges P150. 00 per kilogram of grapes plus a fixed delivery fee of P15.00.
How many kilograms of grapes can be delivered for P1000.00?
2. A bus travels along the national highway from station A to station B. It leaves station A at
10:00 am and travels at a constant speed of 70 miles per hour (mph). A car makes the same
route, travelling 15 mph faster but leaving 10 minutes later. When does the car overtake the
bus?
3. An open rectangular box is to be formed by cutting identical squares, each of side 2 in, one
from each corner of a rectangular piece of cardboard, and then turning up the ends. If the area
of the piece of cardboard is 216 in? and the box is to have volume 224 in³, what should have
been the dimensions of the cardboard used?
4. In Puerto Galera Island, a group of tourists decides to ride in a boat. The boat owner charges
