Answer:
Morning's average rate = 50 mph, and Afternoon's average rate = 25 mph.
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose he drove 150 miles for X hours, then his average rate in the morning was (150/X) mph.
Given that he spent 5 hours in driving.
And he drove 50 miles for (5-X) hours, then his average rate in the afternoon was 50/(5-X) mph.
Given that his average rate in the morning was twice his average rate in the afternoon.
(150/x) = 2 * 50/(5-x)
150/x = 100/(5-x)
Cross multiplying terms, we get:-
150*(5-x) = 100*x
750 - 150x = 100x
750 = 100x + 150x
750 = 250x
x = 750/250 = 3.
It means he spent 3 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon.
So morning's average rate = 150/3 = 50 mph.
and afternoon's average rate = 50/(5-3) = 25 mph.
The answer should be C, 21. I’ll attach a picture for explanation.
The measures of the four angles of quadrilateral ABCD are 36°, 72°, 108° and 144°
<u>Explanation:</u>
A polygon has three or more sides.
Example:
Triangle has 3 sides
Square has 4 sides
Pentagon has 5 sides and so on.
27)
In a quadrilateral ABCD, the measure of ZA, ZB, ZC and ZD are the ratio 1 : 2 : 3 : 4
We know,
sum of all the interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360°
So,
x + 2x + 3x + 4x = 360°
10x = 360°
x = 36°
Thus, the measure of four angles would be:
x = 36°
2x = 2 X 36° = 72°
3x = 3 X 36° = 108°
4x = 4 X 36° = 144°
Therefore, the measures of the four angles of quadrilateral ABCD are 36°, 72°, 108° and 144°
#2, Y=8, x=3
because if you subsitute those variables in,
8=3+5
4x3+8=20
The solution is that x = 26 and y = 9.
In order to find these, we need to note that since the two angles involving x's make a straight line, then they must equal 180 degrees. So we can add them together and set them equal to solve for x.
5x - 17 + 3x - 11 = 180 ----> combine like terms
8x - 28 = 180 ----> add 28 to both sides
8x = 208 -----> divide by 8
x = 26
Now that we have the value of x, we can find the value of the 3x - 11 term. That along with the right angle and the 2y + 5 angle combine to make another straight line. So we can solve by setting that equal to 180 as well.
3x - 11 + 90 + 2y + 5 = 180 ------> Combine like terms
3x + 2y + 84 = 180 -----> Put 26 in for x.
3(26) + 2y + 84 = 180 -----> Multiply
78 + 2y + 84 = 180 ------> Combine like terms again
2y + 162 = 180 ------> Subtract 162 from both sides
2y = 18 -----> Divide by 2
y = 9
