Answer:
x < 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
5(2x + 1) < 10
Divide each side by 5
5/5(2x + 1) < 10/5
2x+1 < 2
Subtract 1 from each side
2x+1-1 < 2-1
2x <1
Divide each side by 2
2x/2 <1/2
x < 1/2
Answer:
<u>9 mph</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Calvin's first leg of the trip took 0.5 hr (30 minutes) at 6 mph. That means he travelled (0.5hr x 6 mph =) 3 miles. He travelled 3 miles on the return trip, by definition (same path home). At 18 mph, 3 miles would take (3 miles/18 mph =) 0.1667 hours. That makes a total of 6 miles and (0.5 + 0.1667=) 0.6667 hours.
(6 miles)/(0.6667 hours) = 9 mph is Calvin's average speed for the round trip.
Answer:
She has completed 2/3 of the poster
Explanation:
1/3 of the poster the first day
+
1/3 of the poster the next day
1/3 + 1/3 = 2/3
There are 2 ways to do this. I'm going to do it the way that I think is most simple.
You have to find their LCM which is 40. Now times 40 to 1/4 v and 7/10
The equation then becomes 10+40v=28
You simplify it: 40v=18
v= 9/20
