Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
4x-5+x=180. Add 5 to both sides
5x=185. Divide by 6
X=37
180-37=143
143
She bought 2 1/4 more blue ribbon.
4 3/8 - 2 1/8 = 2.25
2.25= 9/4
9/4= 2 1/4

Answer:
Use the app photomath
Step-by-step explanation:
1) 
2) 
is a right angle (perpendicular lines form right angles)
3) 
is a right triangle (definition of a right triangle)
4) 
and 
are complementary (the acute angles of a right triangle are complementary)
Let's define variables:
s = original speed
s + 12 = faster speed
The time for the half of the route is:
60 / s
The time for the second half of the route is:
60 / (s + 12)
The equation for the time of the trip is:
60 / s + 60 / (s + 12) + 1/6 = 120 / s
Where,
1/6: held up for 10 minutes (in hours).
Rewriting the equation we have:
6s (60) + s (s + 12) = 60 * 6 (s + 12)
360s + s ^ 2 + 12s = 360s + 4320
s ^ 2 + 12s = 4320
s ^ 2 + 12s - 4320 = 0
We factor the equation:
(s + 72) (s-60) = 0
We take the positive root so that the problem makes physical sense.
s = 60 Km / h
Answer:
The original speed of the train before it was held up is:
s = 60 Km / h
