To solve the problem:

<span>Let f = distance one way distance on level ground</span>

<span>
Let h = distance rode on the hill</span>

<span>
Write a time equation; where Time = distance/speed:</span>

<span>

level time + uphill time + downhill time + level time = 1hr</span>

<span>
</span>

<span>f/9 + h/6 + h/18 + f/9 = 1 hr</span>

<span>

Multiply equation by 18 to get rid of the denominators</span>

<span>
</span>

 

2f + 3h + h + 2f = 18


4f + 4h = 18


Simplify by dividing this by 4


<span>f + h = 4.5 miles is took her to get to Jon’s house.</span>

A plumber has a 2.5 meter long copper pipe. He needs to cut lengths of 60cm,35cm and 90cm
Dima020 [189]
Hello.

The answer is 2315 cm.

To get the answer the equation is: 2500 - (60 +35 +90 )
To get 2500: 2.5 meters is 2500 cms
Then you would subtract how much he needs.

Solve equation. Verify answer 14=-2w
notka56 [123]

Answer:

w = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, w. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.

Divide -2 from both sides:

(14)/-2 = (-2w)/-2

(14)/-2 = w

Note that when you are dividing:

  • 1 negative & 1 positive sign will result in a negative answer
  • 2 negative sign will result in a positive
  • 2 positive sign will result in a positive

In this case:

(14)/-2 = -7

-7 is your answer for w.

Will mark brainlest how to multipy it​
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

\displaystyle x   = 2 \sqrt{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

we would like to solve the following equation:

\displaystyle  \sqrt{3}  =  \frac{6}{x}

in order to do so do cross multiplication:

\displaystyle x \sqrt{3}  =  6

divide both sides by √3:

\displaystyle x   =   \frac{6}{ \sqrt{3}}

since we ended up with a square root on the denominator so we can consider rationalising the denominator to do so multiply both numerator and denominator by √3 which yields:

\displaystyle x   =   \frac{6}{ \sqrt{3}}  \times  \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{ \sqrt{ 3} }

simplify multiplication:

\displaystyle x   =   \frac{6 \sqrt{3} }{ 3}

reduce fraction:

\displaystyle x   = 2 \sqrt{3}

and we are done!
