Answer:

x = 61 mph

the average speed on the level Road is 61 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent Best's average speed on the level road. (In mph)

Best's average speed on the winding road = x-20

Given;

Total distance travelled = 571 miles

Time travelled on level road = 6 hours

Time travelled on winding road = 5 hours

Distance travelled = average speed × time taken

Total distance travelled can be written as

6 × (x) + 5×(x-20) = 571

6x+5x-100 = 571

11x = 571+100

11x = 671

x = 671/11

x = 61 mph

the average speed on the level Road is 61 mph

eimsori [14]
Pythagoras Theorem:
hipotenuse²=side1²  +side2²

a=is the longest side of the triangle (hypotenuse)
b and c: are the other two sides.

In this case:
hipotenuse²=side₁² + side₂²

side₁=a=16
side₂=b=28

c²=16²+28²
c²=256+784
c²=1040
c=√1040=32.2490....≈32.25

Find the value of a.
Nezavi [6.7K]

The value of a is (c) 86

<h3>How to solve for a?</h3>

The given parameter is:

Angle C = 86

By vertical angle theorem, we have:

Angle A = Angle C = 86

This implies that:

Angle A = 86

The arc A subtends angle A

This means that:

Arc A = 86

Hence, the value of a is (c) 86

Y=1/2x +5<br> Y=-3/2x-7<br> Find x and y
gayaneshka [121]
I'm going to use the substitution method. 

If y = - 3/2 - 7, then:

1/2x + 5 = - 3/2x - 7

Combine like terms: 

4/2x = - 12. Mutiply both sides by 2/4 to get x = -12 (2/4)

Simplify to get:

x = - 6.

Plug - 6 back in for x in either equation.

Y = 1/2( - 6) + 5 which becomes Y = - 3 + 5.

X = - 6, Y = 2
