Three times the sum of a number and 4 is the same as 18 more than the number

1 answer:

5 0

First, figure out what you do and don't know....
You do know that 3 times the sum of a number and 4 is 18 more than the number....you don't know the number so you make it the variable x
now take 3 times the sum of a number and 4 and make that an expression 3x+4 this expression is the same or equal to the sum of x and 18 x+18
3x+4=x+18
2x+4=18
2x=14
x=7
hope this helped :)

Train A and train B leave the station at 2 pm. The graph below shows the distance covered by the two trains. Compare the two spe

jarptica [38.1K]

Both trains travel for 7 time units.

Train A travels 385 distance units, so its speed is

$\dfrac{385}{7}=55$

Train B travels 577.5 distance units, so its speed is

$\dfrac{577.5}{7}=82.5$

Note that the units are not specified, but considering that we're talking about trains, the graph is likely to be showing distance in km (or miles) and time in hours.

Also, the distance traveled by train B is not perfectly aligned with the grid, so I assumed that it was the average between the two ticks of 550 and 605.

I need help with this please. It’s probability.

Answer:

2/13

Step-by-step explanation:

In a deck of 52 cards, there are 2 sets of red cards. Diamonds and Hearts. In each set of red cards, there are 4 fives. If there are 2 sets, that means that there are 8 red fives in the deck of 52 cards. This means that the probability is 8/52 which is simplified into 2/13.

Answer:

The rational numbers are $\frac{11}{3}, 6.25, 0.01045,\sqrt{\frac{16}{81}},0.\bar{42}$ and the irrational functions are $\sqrt{48},\sqrt{\frac{3}{16}}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number can be expressed in the form of $\frac{p}{q}$ , where p and q are integers and q is not equal to 0. For example $2,3.5,\frac{2}{5},...$ .

An irrational function can not be expressed in the form of $\frac{p}{q}$ , where p and q are integers and q is not equal to 0. For example $\sqrt{2},\sqrt{3},\sqrt{5},...$ .
