You can factor it into (-5m+n)(-5m+n)
The speed to the island is x. The speed to return is x+5.
The distance is the same so, 2.5 multiplied by x = 2×(x+5).
It took 2.5 hrs to get there and 2 hrs to return. Now all we have to do is solve.
2.5*x = 2x + 10
.5x = 10
x=20
Therefore, the distance between islands is 2.5 × 20 = 50 miles.
hope this helps!
Answer:
answer is B
Step-by-step explanation:
the number that 10% of 20 is coming from 200 so 23% of 200 is 46
To solve this equation we must first plug in 5 for x.

<span> (5 - 4x)
</span>↓

(5 - 4 · 5)
The next step would be to multiply 4 by 5 to get rid of the parenthesis within our main parenthesis.

(5 - 4 · 5)

(5 - 20)
The next step would be to subtract both of the numbers within the parenthesis.

(-15)
Now we must multiply.
-

· 15 = -

-

Now we simplify our answer to get our final answer.
-5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
By the trapezoid midsegment theorem,
2x = (x-6) + (2x-8)
2x = x - 6 + 2x - 8
2x = 3x - 14
x = 14
So we know AD = 8, EF = 14, and BC = 20
