Answer:
3: 1
Step-by-step explanation:
hope this helps
To start, we need to distribute
multiply 2x by <em>everything</em> in the parenthesis
2x (5 + 3x) - x
2x × 5 = 10x
2x × 3x = 6x²
now we have...
10x + 6x² - x
<em>simplify </em>
<u>6x² + 9x </u>
the coefficient of x is 9!
Is this a multiple choice
7.5 km/h
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assign the speed of Jerry in still air as <em>x </em> (in km/h)
Let's assign the speed of the wind as <em>y </em>(in km/h)
With the wind as Jerry’s back, he takes 10 minutes to get to the library. We can create the following equation. (<em>we are converting the minutes to hours by dividing by 60</em>);
2.5 / (x + y) = 10/60
10x + 10y = 150
x + y = 15
With the wind against Jerry, he takes 15 minutes from the library. We can create the following equation;
2.5 / (x-y) = 15/60
15x – 15y = 150
x – y = 10
We can now solve the simultaneous equation by subtraction;
x + y = 15
x – y = 10
2y = 5
y = 5/2 = 2.5
y = 2.5 km/h
x = 7.5 km/h
