2x+1=5x-44 that would be your equation

next start to simplify 

subtract 1 from both sides so you are left with 2x=5x-45

then subtract 5x from both sides and you have -3x=-45

then finally divide -3 from -45 to get x=15

Answer:

PQ=31\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In this problem Q is the midpoint of PR

so

PQ=QR

we have

PQ=2x+1 -----> equation A

QR=5x-44 -----> equation B

equate equation A and equation B

2x+1=5x-44

solve for x

5x-2x=1+44

3x=45

x=15

Find the value of PQ

PQ=2x+1 ------> PQ=2(15)+1=31\ units

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

y= 19.5    x=33

Step-by-step explanation:

-x + 27= -6

(subtract 27 on both sides)

-x= -33

(divide by negative 1 on both sides)

x= 33

(substitute x into the first equation)

y= 1/2x + 3

y= 1/2(33) +3

y= 16.5 +3

y= 19.5

hope this helps :))

For each trip, a taxi company charges a fixed fee of $2.00 plus $0.75 for each 1/2 mile or fraction of 1/2 miles. If, for every
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

E: 2.00 + 0.75 [ 2r]

Step-by-step explanation:

r represents the number of miles. For each 1/2 mile the taxi will charge and extra free of $0.75. Then, for each mile, the taxi will charge $0.75*2. For example:

For a trip of 1 mile the taxi will charge:

$2.00+$0.75*2

For a trip of 2 miles, the taxi will charge:

$2.00+0.75*4

For a trip of 10 miles, the taxi will charge:

$2.00+$0.75*20

Notice that the variable fee (the one that depends on the number of miles) is $0.75 times the double of miles. In each case the number of miles is multiplied by two. Then the correct answer is E: 2.00 + 0.75 [ 2r]
