Answer:

3x = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

To easily do this, we'll make the statement in mathematical form.

Let x represent the number of friends at Jack's wedding.

The equation would be:

3 * x = 50 - 2

3x = 48

x = 48 / 3

x = 16

Therefore, the equation to determine the number of friends (x) at Jack's party is expressed as:

3x = 48

Maths is fun!

What is the slope of the line in the graph? On a coordinate plane, a line goes through points (negative 2, negative 1) and (0, 1
dem82 [27]

Answer:

The slope is one.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the formula (y1-y2)/(x1-x2). Plugging in the points, it would be

(-1-1)/(-2-0) which simplifies to -2/-2, then just 1. You can also make a graph if you really aren't sure whether you did the problem right or make the full equation and plug the points in to make sure it checks out. :) Hope that helps?

Two cars left the city for a suburb, 480 km away, at the same time. The speed of one of the cars was 20 km/hour greater than the
zlopas [31]

Answer:

  • <u>80km/h and 60km/h</u>

Explanation:

<u>1. Data:</u>

i) Distance traveled by the cars:

  • d = 780 km

ii) Speed of the cars:

  • v₁ and v₂
  • v₁ = v₂ + 20 km/h

iii) Time to arrive at the suburb:

  • t₂ - t₁ = 2 hour ⇒ t₂ = t₁ + 2

<u>2. Equations:</u>

  • speed = distance / time

        time  = distance / speed

  • t₂ = 480 / v₂
  • t₁ = 480 / v₁ = 480 / (v₂ + 20)

               t₂        -       t₁                =  2 hour

               ↓                 ↓                    ↓

           480/v₂    -  480/ (v₂ + 20) =  2

             

<u>3. Solve the equation</u>

     480(v₂ + 20) - 480(v₂) =  2 × (v₂ + 20) (v₂)

     240(v₂ + 20) - 240(v₂) =  (v₂ + 20) (v₂)

     240v₂ + 4800 - 240v₂ =  (v₂)²  + 20v₂

      (v₂)²  + 20v₂ - 4800 = 0

      (v₂ + 80) (v₂ - 60) = 0

      v₂ = - 80

      v₂ = 60

Only the positive solution has physical meaning:

  • v₂ = 60km/h                                      ← answer
  • v₁ = 60km/h + 20km/h = 80km/h     ← answer
