Answer:

2/25 is the Answer, as a decimal it is 0.08

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

x + 1/50 = 1/10

Step 2: Subtract 1/50 from both sides.

x + 1/50 - 1/50 = 1/10 - 1/50

X = 2/25

Proof that it is the answer

0.02 + 0.08 = 0.1

0.02 is 1/50

0.08 is 2/25

0.1 is 1/10

Hope this helps!

A person drove 36 miles per hour on a trip. If he had driven 48 miles per hour he would have arrived 4 hours earlier. What was t
nlexa [21]

Answer:

d = 576

Step-by-step explanation

Think of the two different speeds as belonging to 2 different cars going to the same place, taking the same route and going to the same place.

Let the time traveled by the fast car = t

Let the time traveled by the slower car = t+4

Let the rate of travel of the slow car = 36 mph

Let the rate of travel of the fast car = 48 mph

===========

d = 36*(t + 4)

d = 48 * t

Since the distance is the same, they can be equated.

48t = 36(t + 4)           Remove the brackets.

48t = 36t + 144          Subtract 36t from both sides.

48t - 36t = 144           Combine

12t = 144                     Divide by 12

t = 144/12

t = 12

Therefore the faster car takes 12 hours to get where it is going.

d = 48 * t

d = 48 * 12

d = 576

The sum of two angle measures 130 degrees. The difference in the two angle measures is 12 degrees. What are the two angle measur
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

  59°, 71°

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a "sum and difference" problem. All problems of this type have the same answer: the larger of the two numbers is the average of those given.

Then the larger angle is (130 +12)°/2 = 71°. The smaller is 71° -12° = 59°.

_____

<em>More detailed solution</em>

There are several ways to get there using equations. You can, for example, let L represent the larger number. Then L - D will be the smaller one (where D represent the difference). The sum of the two numbers (S) is ...

  L + (L -D) = S

  2L = S + D . . . . collect terms, add D

  L = (S+D)/2 . . . the larger number is the average of the sum and difference

Solve for p: 8 = p over 7 please help!!!
frez [133]

Answer: p= 56

8 = p/7

This means to make p by itself, you have to multiple both sides by 7 to cancel out the 7. On the left side, it’d be 8 times 7, which is 56. On the right side, the 7 cancels out and isolates p.
