Answer:
2x - 0.4x ;
8x/5 ;
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let number of miles = x
Arlene:
Double number of miles = 2 * x = 2x
Subtract 20% of the result :
2x - 20% of 2x ;
2x - 0.4x
Raul:
Divides Number of miles by 5 ; x / 5
Multiplies result by 8 ;
8 * (x/5) = 8x /5
To know if expressions are equivalent :
Let x = 10 miles
Using Arlene's expression:
2x - 0.4x
x = 10
2(10) - 0.4(10) = 16
Using Raul's expression :
8x / 5
(8*10) / 5
80/5
= 16
Since they give the same result, we can conclude that the expression are equivalent
Answer:
If the measures of the corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional then the triangles are similar. Likewise if the measures of two sides in one triangle are proportional to the corresponding sides in another triangle and the including angles are congruent then the triangles are similar
You would take 280-105=175 miles away and take 105 and divide that by your time 1.5 too get 70 mph
Answer:
D) 12x² - 20x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Use FOIL when multiplying 2 binomials...
FOIL is Firsts, Outsides, Insides, Lasts. It's the order in which you multiply the numbers in the binomials...
(2x - 1)(6x - 7)
Firsts: (2x)(6x) = 12x²
Outsides: (2x)(-7) = -14x
Insides: (-1)(6x) = -6x
Lasts: (-1)(-7) = 7
Now add them up...
12x² - 14x - 6x + 7
12x² - 20x + 7
