The answer is C) 30.

Explanation:

-3x + 6 = 2x -24

6 + 24 = 2x + 3x

30 = 5x

x = 30/5 = 6

the answer is 6. add -3x to 2x which gives you 5x. then add 24 to 6 which gives you 30. the equation is now 30=5x. divide by 5. 30÷5=6. x=6

Answer:

y = $-\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of the line is,

y = mx + b

m = Slope of the line

b = y-intercept

Since, slope of a line passing through two points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ is given by,

m = $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Since, the given line passes through two points (-5, 1) and (4, -2)

Slope of the line 'm' = $\frac{1+2}{-5-4}$ = $-\frac{1}{3}$

Equation of the line will be,

y = $-\frac{1}{3}x+b$

Since, this line passes through (4, -2),

-2 = $-\frac{4}{3}+b$

b = $\frac{4}{3}-2$

b = $-\frac{2}{3}$

Therefore, equation of the line will be,

y = $-\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{2}{3}$

11. Max is designing a hot tub for a local spa.

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Area required for circular hot tube = 6,218 inch² (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Diameter of circular hot tube = 89 inches

Value of π = 3.14

Find:

Area required for circular hot tube

Computation:

Radius of hot tube = Diameter / 2

Radius of hot tube = 89 / 2 inches

Area required for circular hot tube = Area of circle

Area of circle = πr²

Area required for circular hot tube = πr²

Area required for circular hot tube = (3.14)(89/2)²

Area required for circular hot tube = (3.14)(7921 / 4)

Area required for circular hot tube = (3.14)(1,980.25)

Area required for circular hot tube = 6,217.985

Area required for circular hot tube = 6,218 inch² (Approx.)

Two cars simultaneously left Points A and B and headed towards each other, and met after 3 hours and 15 minutes. The distance be

ella [17]

Answer:

50 mph, 62 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Their total speed is found from ...

speed = distance/time

speed = (364 mi)/(3.25 h) = 112 mi/h

If s is the speed of the slower car, then ...

s + (s+12) = 112 . . . . . their total speed is 112 mph

2s = 100 . . . . . . . . . . simplify, subtract 12

s = 50 . . . . . . . the speed of the slower car

s+12 = 62 . . . . the speed of the faster car
