x

Step-by-step explanation:
24 + 3x = 3x + 3(7 - 1)
Eliminate the parentheses: 24 + 3x = 3x + 3(6)
24 + 3x = 3x + 18
Subtract 3x from each side: <em>24 = 18</em>
Look at that for a second. Can ANY value of 'x' make 24 equal to 18 ?
I don't think so.
There's NO number that makes the equation a true statement.
That's just another way to say: "The equation has NO solution."
Answer:
2:30 pm
Step-by-step explanation:
In two hours (from 10am), she is 45 * 2 = 90 miles from vacation cabin.
From then on her average is still 45 mph and her husband's is 65 mph. So, husband catches her 20 miles (65-45=20) in every hour.
<em>The husband has to catch up 90 miles. How long would it take if he is catching up at 20 miles an hour?</em>
<em>90/20 = 4.5 hours</em>
<em />
<em>So husband starts at 10am and 4.5 hours form that time is 2.30pm</em>
