You can find the volume by multiplying the Length X width X height.
We want to solve

Subtract 2/(2x+1) from each side.

Add 1/4 to each side, and simplify the left side.

Cross multiply.
4(x - 2) = 1(2x + 1)
4x - 8 = 2x + 1
Simplify and solve for x.
4x - 2x = 1 + 8
2x = 9
x = 9/2 or x = 4 1/2.
Answer:
Equation 1:
x = (5y+11)/2
Substitute equation 1 to 2:
-2((5y+11)/2)+ 3y=-9
-2/2 = -1 thus -1(5y+11)
Continue...
-(5y+11)+3y=-9
-5y-11+3y =-9
(-5+3)y= 11-9
-2y = 2
y=-1
Substitute y into equation 1:
x=(5*-1+11)/2
x = 6/2=3
So y=-1 and x =3
Answer:
4317 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
At a given speed, distance is proportional to time.
NY-Rome distance = (3500 mi)(7.4 h)/(6 h) = 4316 2/3 mi ≈ 4317 mi
