Answer: 2(x+y)-25
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to show the sum of Roger and Olivia's heights. If Roger is x and Olivia is y, the sum is <em>x+y</em>
Next, we need to double that. To double something we multiply it by 2. Since we need double the expression we found above, we put it in parentheses. So the doubled sum is shown as <em>2(x+y)</em>
Finally, we need to show that Isabella is 25 centimeters shorter than the doubled sum. To do that, subtract 25.
The final expression for Isabella's height is 2(x+y)-25
It takes Andre 1.25 minutes to swim a lap.

Answer:
x = -4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
(5 x + 4) (8 x - 71) = 0
Split into two equations:
5 x + 4 = 0 or 8 x - 71 = 0
Subtract 4 from both sides:
5 x = -4 or 8 x - 71 = 0
Divide both sides by 5:
x = -4/5 or 8 x - 71 = 0
Add 71 to both sides:
x = -4/5 or 8 x = 71
Divide both sides by 8:
Answer: x = -4/5 or x = 71/8
Answer:
1) distance travelled = 75mi
time taken = 3 hrs.
speed = distance/time
= 75/3 = 25 mi/hr.
now, if time = 1.6 hrs.
Distance = speed x time
= 25 x 1.6 = 40.0 mi

2) earning for 8 hrs. of work = $120.
therefore, rate of earning per hr. = 120/8 = $15/hr.
so, earning in 11 hrs. = 15 x 11 = $165
