X=number of females
47-x=number of males
# of males is 2*(number of females)-7:
47-x= 2x-7
add x to both sides:
47=3x-7
add 7 to both sides:
54=3x
divide both sides by 3:
x= 18 females
47-18= 29 males
A. multiplication is your answer.
Answer:
Rate of slower bus; 90 km/h
Rate of faster bus; 102 km/b
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that formula do distance is;
Distance = speed/time
We are told that One bus travels 12h slower than the other.
Let speed of slower bus be x.
Thus;
Speed of faster bus = x + 12
Speed of slower bus = x
After 3 hours, distance by faster bus = 3(x + 12)
Speed of slower bus = 3x
Since the towns are 576 km apart, then;
3(x + 12) + 3x = 576
Divide through by 3 to get;
x + 12 + x = 192
2x + 12 = 192
2x = 192 - 12
2x = 180
x = 180/2
x = 90 km/h
Faster bus speed = 90 + 12 = 102 km/h
F(x) = 2x + 5
-----------------------------------
Find f(x + 1) :
-----------------------------------
f(x +1) = 2(x + 1) + 5
f(x +1) = 2x + 2 + 5
f(x + 1) = 2x + 5
-----------------------------------
Find -2f(x+1):
-----------------------------------
-2(fx+1) = -2(2x + 5)
-2(fx+1) = -4x - 10
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: -2(fx+1) = -4x - 10
