Speed = Distance/Time. Let speed be V, distance D and time T

a)Given: D₁ =45km, V₁=x km/h 
V₁=D₁/T
V₁=45/T OR T= 45/V₁

b) Given : D₂ =48 km and V₂ = V₁ + 4 km/h
V₂ = 48/T, but V₂ = V₁+4, then:

V₁+4 = 48/T OR  T=48/(V₁+4). Since Time is same, then we can write:
45/V₁ =48/(V₁+4), solve for V₁:
45V₁ + 180 = 48V₁

3V₁ =180 and V₁ = x = 60 km/h

X = -1!
1. Factor out 2 from the expression : 2(x-5) / 4 = 3x
2. Reduce the fraction with 2 : x-5 / 2 = 3x
3. Multiply both sides of the equation by 2 : x-5=6x
4. Move the terms : x - 6x = 5
5. Collect like terms : -5x = 5
6. Divid both sides by -5
Hope this helps!
