<h3>The answer is:</h3><h2>D. 5 hours</h2><h2 />
The equation should be:
(70x) - (20x) = 250
Because we have all the possible answers, we can plug one of them into x to see if it equals 250 miles.
Use an educated guess. I'm going to go with 5 because it seems reasonable.
(70 * 5) - (20 * 5) = 250
Let's check to see if it equals 250:
Therefore, the answer is D. 5 hours.

We have a right triangle with
a = one leg = 28
b = other leg = 21
c = hypotenuse = 5x
use the pythagorean theorem (a^2+b^2 = c^2) and solve for x
a^2+b^2 = c^2
28^2+21^2 = (5x)^2
784+441 = 25x^2
1225 = 25x^2
25x^2 = 1225
(25x^2)/25 = 1225/25
x^2 = 49
sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(49)
|x| = 7
x = 7 or x = -7
Since the hypotenuse has length 5x meters, this means
5x = 5*7 = 35
or
5x = 5(-7) = -35
Toss out the negative length as it makes no sense.
The only value of x is x = 7
Therefore the final answer is x = 7

Answer:
y = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total numbers are n.
If the average of y numbers is x then we can form an equation

⇒ 
⇒ n =
--------(1)
Now 30 is added to the set of numbers then average becomes (x - 5)

⇒ 
⇒ (n + 1) = 
⇒ n =
- 1 ----- (2)
Now we equate the values of n from equation 1 and 2
=
- 1
y(x - 5) = x(y + 30) - x(x - 5) [ By cross multiplication ]
xy - 5y = xy + 30x - x² + 5x
xy - xy - 5y = 35x - x²
-5y = 35x - x²
x² - 35x = 5y
y =
