|x - 5| = 16
x - 5 = +/- 16
x - 5 = 16 or x - 5 = -16
<u> +5</u> <u>+5 </u> <u> +5 </u> <u>+5 </u>
x = 21 or x = -11
Answer: x = {21, -11}
Answer:
6 - 3p
Step-by-step explanation:
The word "product" indicates to multiply 3 and p, and "subtracted from" tells us to use subtraction.
Given,
SP~QP
SR~QR
In ∆SRP and ∆QRP
SP~QP (given)
SR~QR (given)
PR=PR (common)
Therefore,
∆SRP~∆QRP by SSS congruence rule.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the speed of current be x
<u>Speed of the boat in same direction as current is</u>
<u>Speed against the current is</u>
<u>Based on the given we get the equation for time</u>
<u>Solving for x</u>
- 6(10 - x) = 4(10 + x)
- 60 - 6x = 40 + 4x
- 6x + 4x = 60 - 40
- 10x = 20
- x = 2
The answer is 2 mph
