Answer:

65x + 60x = 500

Step-by-step explanation:

65x + 60x = 500

add 65x and 60x

this will equal 125x

divide 500 by 125

this will give you x = 4

which gives you the answer that the trucks will meet in 4 hours

please mark as brainliest

hope this helps : )

They would meet after 4 hours, as 65 x 4 = 260. And 60 x 4 = 240. If you add these, they become a value of 500. This also answers the 2nd question ; 65x + 60x = 500.

Given:

Alexis has a rectangular backyard that is 50 yards by 55 yards.

She wants to build a fence that stretches diagonally from one corner to the opposite corner.

To find:

The length of the fencing she needs.

Solution:

We have,

Length = 50 yards

Width = 55 yards

We know that, the diagonal of a rectangle is

Diagonal=\sqrt{length^2+width^2}

Diagonal=\sqrt{(50)^2+(55)^2}

Diagonal=\sqrt{2500+3025}

Diagonal=\sqrt{5525
}

On further simplification, we get

Diagonal=74.3303437

Diagonal\approx 74.3

Therefore, the length of the required fencing is 74.3 yards.

Can someone walk me through the steps: Steve increases his math average by 9 points over a period of 15 weeks. How many points p
ozzi

hmmm units rates are just a matter of one above the other.

in this case is points/week.

9/15  points/weeks, we can just divide 9 ÷ 15 = 0.6, or 3/5.

so 0.6 points/weeks.

Find the slope of the line between (1,5)and (3,9)
Volgvan
We can use the points in either order and you will still get the same slope. I usually solve in order that is given. So the first coordinates I label (x1,y1) and the second is (x2,y2).

Slope=m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(9-5)/(3-1)=4/2=2

Slope is 2.
