Answer:
C.)-5
Step-by-step explanation:
y2-y1/x2-x1
(-9,6) (-6,-9)
-9-6=-15
-6-(-9)=3
-15/3=-5
x + x + 3 + x - 8
3x - 5 = 55
3x = 60, x = 20
Since we put Julie as x, we put Janet at x + 3, and the brother is x - 8 (8 years younger)
Julie is 20
Janet (x + 3) = (20 + 3) = 23
Brother(x - 8) = (20 - 8) = 12
Answer:x=-20
Step-by-step explanation:
Plane #1 speed: x mph
Plane #2 speed: (x+30) mph
time = time becomes
170 mi 185 mi
---------- = --------------
x x+30
Solving for x, the speed of the slower plane, we get
170x + 5100 = 185 x
5100
Then 15x = 5100, and x = ---------- (mi/hr) = 340 mph
15
The slower plane flies at 340 mph, and the faster one at 370 mph.
We know this angle is a 90° or a right angle. So another words we know adding these 2 expressions equals to 90°.
(4x + 3) + (x - 8) = 90°
Remove the parentheses and combine the like-terms:
5x - 5 = 90°
Add 5 on both sides:
5x = 95°
Divide 5 on both sides
x = 19
You answer is x = 19.
