Let x + 1.5 be length of segment above left hand
Let 2x be length of segment below left hand
15 = x + 1.5 + 2x
15 = 3x + 1.5
15 - 1.5 = 3x
13.5 = 3x
13.5/3= 3x/3
4.5 = x
x = 4.5
This is the length above the left hand.
2x must be then 4.5*2 = 9 foot
This is the length below the left hand.
Checking
4.5 + 9 + 1.5 = 15 foot
Adding length below left hand & length of left hand to right hand:
9 + 1.5 = 10.5
The right hand is hence 10.5 foot far up the pole.
Answer:
d.x=-8 and x=-10
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
4.92
Step-by-step explanation:
615 divided by 125 equals to 4.92
(5*7) - (5*4) = 35 - 20 = 15
you "distribute" the 5 but multiplying it to both numbers in the parentheses, and doing the subtraction.
