Hey!

Let's start writing this problem.
-2x+7=13x-5
Subtract 7 from both sides.
-2x+7-7=13x-5-7
-2x=13x-12
Subtract 13x from both sides.
-2x-13x=13x-12-13x
-15x=-12
Divide both sides by -15.
\frac{-15x}{-15}=\frac{-12}{-15}
x=\frac{4}{5}

Let me know if you have any questions regarding this problem!
Thanks!

Two cyclists start at the same point and travel in opposite directions. One cyclist travels
Shtirlitz [24]
Distance = rate times time.

Let the first cyclist's rate be r1 and the 2nd cyclist's rate be r2.

Let r2 = r1 + 10   (km per hour).

The total distance between them after 3 hours is 174 km; using the distance= rate times time formula, we also get:

r1(3 hrs) + r2(3 hrs) = 174 km
Then
r1(3 hrs) + (r1+10)(3hrs) = 174 km

Then 3r1 + 3r1 + 30 = 174 

6r1 = 144, and r1 = 24 km/hr.  Then r2 = (24 + 10) km/hr = 34 km/hr.

Miguel reels his teacher that 1/5 is the same as 20% what best justifies Miguel’s answer
horrorfan [7]
If you do the proportion, you have to put 1/5 = 20/100. The 20 represents the percentage. Then you have to say to yourself that how many time 5 goes to 100, well its x20 then if we multiply 1 x 20 we'll get 20. So, he is correct, 1/5 = 20%. Remember what number we think of when we hear the word percent, the number is 100.
