given: s is the midpoint of rt
definition of midpoint: rs st
given: st xg
transitive property of congruence: rs xy
X = number of days it would take Kate to paint the house by herself. .
<span>x+5 = number of days it would take Jean to paint the house by herself.</span>
<span>Together, they paint the house in 6 days: </span>
<span>1/x + 1/(x+5) = 1/6 </span>
<span>Multiply both sides by 6x(x+5) </span>
<span>6(x+5) + 6x = x(x+5) </span>
<span>12x + 30 = x^2 + 5x </span>
<span>x^2 − 7x − 30 = 0
</span>therefore the answer is A.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- Total distance = 10 miles
- Total time = 2 hours
- Distance walked = x
- Speed walked = 2 mph
- Distance cycled = 10 - x
- Speed cycled = 15 mph
<u>Using the given data we can have the equation below to the time:</u>
- x/2 + (10 - x)/15 = 2
- 30x/2 + 30(10 - x)/15 = 30(2)
- 15x + 20 - 2x = 60
- 13x = 60 - 20
- 13x = 40
- x = 40/13
- x = 3.08 miles <em>rounded to 2 decimal places</em>
