1/2x + 42 = 4x
-1/2x           -1/2x
------------------------
42 = 3.5x
/3.5   /3.5
------------------------
12 = x
the number is 12


explanation: 42 more than 1/2 of a number can be written as 1/2x + 42
four times a number can be written as 4x.
42 more than 1/2 of a number is equal to 4 times a number. So 1/2x + 42 = 4x.

Hope this helps :)

If the legs of an isosceles right triangle have a length of ft, the hypotenuse will have a length of?
lesya [120]
Isoceleese means then that 2 sides are equal
right triangle so the legs are equal

a^2+b^2=c^2
the legs aer a and b
in isocoleese, a=b
a^2+a^2=c^2
2a^2=c^2
if isocoleese=a then c=?
solve for c
sqrt both sides
a√2=c


if the legs are x feet, then the hyppotonuse is x√2 feet

The faster you drive the less time it takes to reach your destination (a driver's speed is inversely proportional to the drive t
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

The time the trip takes Kelly is approximately 34 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The topic examined by the question is the relationship between speed, distance traveled, and time which is presented here as follows;

Speed, \ S = \dfrac{Distance \ travelled \ 'd'}{Time \ taken \ 't'}

The given parameters of the journey are;

The time it takes Mike to travel from point 'a' to point 'b' = 45 minutes

The speed with which Mike travels = 60 miles an hour

The speed with which Kelly travels the same trip = 80 miles an hour

Let 'd' represent the distance from point 'a' to point 'b', and let 't' represent the time the trip takes Kelly

For Mike, we have;

S = d/t

∴ d = S × t

Where;

S = 60 miles per hour

t = 45 minutes = 0.75 hour

d = 60 miles/hour × 0.75 hour = 45 miles

The distance from point 'a' to point 'b' = d = 45 miles

Similarly, from S = d/t, we have for Kelly the time 't' given as follows;

t = d/S

Where;

S = 80 miles/hour

d = 45 miles

∴ t = 45 miles/(80 miles/hour) = 9/16 hour = 9/16 hour × 60 min/hour = 33.75 minutes

The time the trip takes Kelly = 33.75 minutes ≈ 34 minutes.
