Time taken by a regular bus to reach its destination = 3 1/4 hours
                                                                                   = 13/4 hours
Time taken by the express bus to make the same trip = 2 1/2 hours
                                                                                       = 5/2 hours
Time that can be saved by taking the express bus = (13/4) - (5/2) hours
                                                                                 = (13 - 10)/4 hours
                                                                                 = 3/4 hours
So 3/4 hours can be saved by taking the express bus rather than the regular bus. The correct option among all the options given in the question is option "C". I hope the procedure is simple enough for you to understand.

Can somebody help me solve for x?
Dahasolnce [82]

Let y = the distance between the top left corner and the bottom right corner

y^2 = 24^2 + 15^2

y^2 = 801

y = 3 * sqrt(89)

Now we can find x.

12^2 + x^2 = (3 * sqrt(89))^2

x^2 = 657

x = 3 * sqrt(73) or 25.63

Solve y=3bx-7x for x
irina [24]
Y = 3bx - 7x
y = x(3b - 7)

Divide each side by 3b - 7 (assume that it is not zero).
\frac{y}{3b-7} =x

Answer:
x= \frac{y}{3b-7}

A salesperson works 40 hours per week at a job where she has two options for being paid.option A is an hourly wage of 23. Option
Advocard [28]
Let's start with option A --> $23 per hour x 40 hours = 23 x 40 = 920 = $920

That means we have to find how many $ x 5% = $920 

We'll call our unknown amount: "B", so B x 0.05 = $920

To find B you have to get ride of everything on its side:
(B x 0.05) / 0.05 = 920 / 0.05 ----> we have to do the same operations on each side.
Now we have B = 920 / 0.05 ----> B = $18,400
The salesperson must sell $18,400 in order to earn the same amount as the first option.
