Answer:
11. c > 5
12. option 1
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the given statement, we can get the equation:
50 - 3x = 1/2 (50-x)
where x = amount removed from bag two, 3x removed from bag one
Then we multiply both sides by 2 (to eliminate the ½)
100-6x= 50-x
Add 6x to both sides
100= 50-5x
Then subtract 50 from both sides
50=5x
Lastly, divide by 5
10=x
Therefore 10 kg of sugar was removed from bag 2
further, 3x= 30, so 30 kg of sugar was removed from bag 1.
50-30=20 kg remaining in bag 1.
<span>50-10=40 kg remaining in bag 2.</span>
Answer:
x=100
Step-by-step explanation:
. Distance = Speed * Time
Let s represent the speed of the cars in miles per hour. The problem statement tells you
.. red car distance + 25 miles = blue car distance
.. s*3 + 25 = s*(3 + 0.5)
.. 25 = 0.5s ... subtract 3s from both sides
.. 50 = s ... multiply by 2
The speed of the red and blue cars is 50 miles per hour.
