Answer:
x = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
the sum of any exterior angle is equal to the sum of any two interior angles
3x-11 + 5x+14 = 9x-15
8x + 3 = 9x - 15
3 = x - 15
x = 18
11 hours and 15 minutes because doing 2.25, which is equal to 2 hours and 15 minutes, times 5 you end up getting 11.25, and converting that to time you get 11 hours and 15 minutes.
Answer:
Speed of river's current = 5 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 'd' be the distance covered
Let x be the speed of the rivers current
Speed upstream = 15-x
speed downstream = 15+x
Time = distance / speed
time upstream = 
time downstream = 
the ferry trip upstream takes twice as long as its return trip downstream
= 
divide both sides by d
= 
cross multiply


Add 2x on both sideds

subtract 15 from both sides and divide by 3

x=5
Speed of river's current = 5 mph
We know that
<span>Peter has already delivered </span><span> 2 pizzas in 5 minutes
so
1 hour-------> 60 minutes
</span><span>time left------> 60 minutes - 5 minutes--------> 55 minutes
</span>pizzas to deliver to beat his previous record----------> 20-2------> 18 pizzas
therefore
in the next 55 minutes
if the
<span>average per minute = (18/55) pizzas /minute
</span>Pete beat his previous record
<span>
</span>average per minute > (18/55) pizzas /minute
Pete overcome the previous record
average per minute < (18/55) pizzas /minute
Pete will not match the previous record
