1/10 of 3,000 is 300
300 is 10 times as much as 30
Let the time taken by Vince to complete the race was x hours.
Maury completed the race 1.5 hours faster. This means Maury complete the race in (x - 1.5) hours.
Average Speed of Maury = 16 miles per hour
Average Speed of Vince = 12 miles per hour
Distance = Speed x Time.
For Maury:
Distance = 16(x - 1.5)
For Vince:
Distance = 12x
Since the distance covered by both was the same, we can equate the two equations as:
16(x - 1.5) = 12x
16x - 24 = 12x
4x = 24
x = 6
This means Vince complete the race in 6 hours.
Distance = Speed x Time = 12 x 6 = 72 miles
Thus, the total distance of the race was 72 miles.
Replace x with 2 and solve each equation:
1/2(2) + 4 = 1 + 4 = 5
2+ 6 -1/2(2) -2 = 8-3 = 5
The answer is:
both expressions equal 5 when substituting 2 for x because the expressions are equivalent.
Answer:
Area of the parallelogram = 21.6 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a parallelogram = Base × Height of the side parallel to the base
By using ruler,
Base = 4.8 cm
Height of parallelogram = 4.5 cm
Area of the parallelogram = 4.8 × 4.5
= 21.6 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - y = 74
4y = x
Replace x in the first expression by 4y
3x - y = 74 ➡ 3(4y) - y = 74
12y - y = 74
11y = 74
y = 74/11 we can use this to find x
4y = x
4 × 74/11 = x
296/11 = x
