Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x – 2) = 3x + 1

Distribute 4x-8 = 3x+1

Subtract 3x from each side

4x -8-3x = 3x-3x + 1

x-8 =1

Add 8 to each side

x-8+8 = 1+8

x=9

First distribute the four

4(x - 2) = 3x + 1 =

4x - 8 = 3x + 1

Now isolate the variable

4x - 8 = 3x + 1 =

4x = 3x + 9 =

x = 9

so your answer is nine

A motorcycle travels 3 and 1/8 miles in 2.5 minutes. Which of the following represents the rate, to the nearest mile, at which t

bonufazy [111]

The rate would be 75 miles in 1 hour.

Set up a proportion to solve this:
3 1/8 miles in 2.5 minutes gives us the ratio 3.125/2.5.
The second ratio would be x miles in 60 minutes, or x/60.

3.125/2.5 = x/60

Cross multiply:
187.5 = 2.5x

Divide both sides by 2.5:
187.5/2.5 = 2.5x/2.5
75=x
