Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We would like to find the value of x such that:

2x + 1 = (8x + 5) + 20

Here, notice that the "+ 20" part mathematically represents the "twenty greater" phrase in the problem.

Now, we simply solve for x:

2x + 1 = 8x + 5 + 20

2x + 1 = 8x + 25

6x = 24

x = 4

The answer is thus 4.

Answer:

x = -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks when is 2x + 1 20 more than 8x + 5, which is the same thing as when is 2x + 1 equal to 20 plus 8x plus 5.

2x + 1 = 8x + 5 + 20

2x - 8x = 25 - 1

-6x = 24

x = -4

Hope this helps!

If you divide the total distance traveled on a car trip (as determined by the odometer) by the elapsed time of the trip, are you
PSYCHO15rus [73]

In general, you're calculating the magnitude of average velocity. In fact, speed is a vector, and as such it also has a direction and orientation.

So, if you compute the average speed, you're assuming that you went directly from point A to point B, which is basically never the case.

If, instead, you actually moved on a straight line from point A to point B, then the two quantities are the same.

Difference = 168 - 74.2 = 93.8 liters.
