5x -3 = 12
5x -3 + 3 = 12 + 3 [Add 3 to each side]
5x + 0 = 15  [Evaluate]
5x/5 = 15/5 [Divide each side by 5]
1x = 3 [Evaluate]

The answer I get is the number 3.

What is the average velocity between 12.00 and 15.00 seconds
bekas [8.4K]

The average between 12.00 and 15.00 seconds
can be defined in a few different ways.

Way #1:  (speed)

     Average speed =
         (1/2) (the speed at 12 seconds  +  the speed at 15 seconds) .


Way #2:  (speed)

   Average speed =
       (1/3) (the distance covered between 12.00 and 15.00 seconds)


Way #3:  (velocity)

   Average velocity =
     (1/3) (distance between location at 12 sec and location at 15 sec)
       in the direction from location at 12 sec to location at 15 sec.


That's the best we can do with the combination of given and
not given information in the question.

How to solve 4+|7-m|=5
notka56 [123]
When
|a|=b
assume
a=b and -a=b
so

4+|7-m|=5
minus 4 from both sides
|7-m|=1
assume
7-m=1 and
-(7-m)=1

7-m=1
minus 7 both sidees
-m=-6
times -1 both sides
m=6

-(7-m)=1
distribute
-7+m=1
add 7 to both sides
m=8

m=6 and 8

the area of a rectangle is 42.15 square meters. if the length is 21 meters, what is perimeters of the rectangle?
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

perimeters of the rectangle=p=46.014 metres

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Length (l) = 21 m

Area of rectangle(A) = 42.15 meter-square

Width (w)=?

Required data:

Perimater of Rectangle=p=?

Calculation:

As we know that Area of rectangle=A=l*w

Putting the value we get

42.15 m(square)=(21 m)*w

or w=42.15/21

or w=2.007 m

Now to find perimters of rectangle we know that

p=2(l + w) metres

putting the values

p=2(21+2.007) metres

p=2(23.007) metres

p=46.014 metres
