Answer:

a. 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the specifically state that they are vertical angles. This means that the two measurements should equal each other. Set the two expressions equal to each other, and isolate the x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other:

3x = x + 50

Subtract x from both sides to isolate the x:

3x (-x) = x (-x) + 50

3x - x = 50

2x = 50

Isolate the x, divide 2 from both sides:

(2x)/2 = (50)/2

x = 50/2

x = 25

x = 25, or (a) 25 is your answer.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical angles are congruent, hence

3x = x + 50 ( subtract x from both sides )

2x = 50 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 25 → a

Can someone help me the 2nd problem I don’t understand it

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

So this means the bus B covered 390-120=270 miles when bus A has already reached 390 miles.

270 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

So is A is going faster than B so A will reach the destination first.

When will A reach it's destination?

Let's find out.

To solve this problem, the following will come in handy:

Speed=distance/time or time*Speed=distance or time=distance/speed .

time=distance/speed

$T_A=\frac{390}{S_A}$

$T_A=\frac{390}{65}$

$T_A=6$

So it will take bus A 6 hours to cover the distance of 390 miles.

How much time would have it taken bus B to reach that same distance?

$T_B=\frac{390}{45}$

$T_B=8.\overline{6}$

So it would have taken bus B $8.\overline{6}$ hours to cover a distance of 390 miles.

So the time difference is $8.\overline{6}-6=2.\overline{6}$ hours.

It will take $2.\overline{6}$ more hours than bus A for bus B to complete a distance of 390 miles.

So bus B traveled $2.\overline{6} \cdot 45=120$ miles (used the time*speed=distance) after bus A got to it's destination.

So this means the bus B covered 390-120=270 miles when bus A has already reached 390 miles.

You are given two algebraic equations, y = 3x, and 2y = x + 20. Solve for x and y.

Yuri [45]

Answer:

x= -4 & y=-12

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply y=3x by 2

giving you 2y=6x

subtracting 2y=x+20 from 2y =6x

=> 5x=-20

dividing through by 5

=> x=-4

put x=-4 into y=3x

=> y=3(-4)

The weight of a car is modeled with the polynomial x2 + 10x + 200. The weight of a x3 + x + 100. Which polynomial represents the

Zolol [24]

<h3>The combined weight of a car and truck is given as the polynomial P(W) = x³ + x² + 11 x + 300</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of the car is given as:

P(C) = x² + 10 x + 200

The weight of the truck is given as:

P(T) = x³ + x + 100

Now, the combined weight of both vehicles is given as

= Weight of Car P(C) + Weight of Truck P(T)

P(W) = x² + 10 x + 200 + x³ + x + 100

= x³ + x² + (10 x + x)+ (200 + 100)

= x³ + x² + 11 x + 300

⇒ The combined weight of a car and truck is given as the polynomial P(W) = x³ + x² + 11 x + 300
