Let the distance be x miles
Time = Distance / speed
Time taken by Mike to go to his friend's house = x / 40 hours
Time taken by him to return = x / 45 hours
Total time = x / 40 + x / 45 = 4 hours
= 9x + 8x = 1440 miles
17x = 1440
= x = 1440 ÷ 7
= x = 84.706
Time taken to return home = 84.706 /45= 1.882 hours .
Therefore , Mike took 1.882 hours to reach home .
Answer:
D. 10x - 5
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Algebra I</u>
- Terms/Coefficients/Degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
f(x) = 2x + 5x
g(x) = 3x - 5
(f + g)(x) is f(x) + g(x)
<u>Step 2: Simplify</u>
f(x) = 7x
g(x) = 3x - 5
<u>Step 3: Find</u>
- Substitute: (f + g)(x) = 7x + (3x - 5)
- Combine like terms: (f + g)(x) = 10x - 5
Sorry that’s it’s sloppy i tried to write it on my phone. hope this part helps. i’ll try to do the bottom part now
Here you are. you can see my explication.
have fun
