Answer:
x = 105 degrees
reason: corresponding angles
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
You can check it by solving it in your head. They are separating at the rate of 55-40 or 15 miles per hour. So in 1 hour or 60 minutes they'll be 15 miles apart, so in 20 minutes they'll be 5 miles apart, so in 40 minutes they'll be 10 miles apart. So it has to be 40 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
55t-40t=10
15t=10
15t/15=10/15
2/3
40 Minutes

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The answer depends on what the problem really is.
f(1/2) = 8
or
f(1/2) = 4
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is the problem as it was posted:
y = f(x) = 16x
Let x = 1/2
y = f(1/2) = 16(1/2) = 8
Perhaps the problem is this:

If x is an exponent of 16 and not a factor, then the answer is:

2|7 − 7x| = 2x + 4
|7 - 7x| = x + 2
7 - 7x = x + 2 or 7 - 7x = -(x + 2)
-8x = -5 or 7 - 7x = -x - 2
x = 5/8 or -6x = -9
x = 5/8 or x = 9/6
x = 5/8 or x = 3/2
To check for extraneous solutions, we check both solutions in the original equation.
<em>Check solution 5/8:</em>
2|7 - 7x| = 2x + 4
|7 - 7x| = x + 2
|7 - 7 * 5/8| = 5/8 + 2
|56/8 - 35/8| = 5/8 + 16/8
21/8 = 21/8
<u>Solution x = 5/8 works.</u>
<em>Check solution 3/2:</em>
2|7 - 7x| = 2x + 4
|7 - 7x| = x + 2
|7 - 7 * 3/2| = 3/2 + 2
|14/2 - 21/2| = 3/2 + 4/2
|-7/2| = 7/2
7/2 = 7/2
<u>Solution 3/2 also works.</u>
Answer: x = 5/8 or x = 3/2
