25, 65, and y make a right triangle. use a^2 + b^2 =c^2.
so...
y^2 + 25^2 = 65^2
y^2 + 625 = 4225
y^2 = 3600 take the square root of both sides
y=60
Total distance = 200 miles
Time needed for the first 100 miles
= 100 ÷ 40 = 2.5 hours
Time needed for the second 100 miles
= 100 ÷ 50 = 2 hours
Total time = 2.5 + 2 = 4.5 hours
Average speed = 200 ÷ 4.5 hours = 44.4 miles per hour
Answer:
-5 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
is 3(x-2) = -7 then it's same as 3x-6=-7
We simplify this by adding 6 and subtracting 6.
Our result is
3x=-17
-17/3=-5 2/3
