Answer:
x = -5
x = -12
Step-by-step explanation:
- 7x - 60 = x^2 + 10x
add 7x to both sides
x^2 + 17x = -60
add 60 to both sides
x^2 + 17x + 60 = 0
factorise quadratic
(x + 12) (x + 5) = 0
<em>x = -12</em>
<em>x = -12x = -5</em>
Length of the bottom of the triangle = x
another side =10+2(x)
last side=6x
the equation is 6^2x10
Answer:
x=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
-4x – 6(3x + 4) = -4 + 8(1 - x)
Distribute
-4x – 18x -24 = -4 + 8 -8x
Combine like terms
-22x -24 = 4-8x
Add 22x to each side
-22x+22x -24 = 4-8x+22x
-24 =4+14x
Subtract 4 from each side
-24-4 = 4+14x-4
-28 = 14x
Divide each side by 14
-28/14 =14/14
-2 =x
Answer:
210 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
speed of jet = x
headwind: speed = x - 27
time taken = 1134.6/(x - 27)
tailwind: speed = x + 27
time taken = 1469.4/(x + 27)
same amount of time:
1134.6/(x - 27) = 1469.4/(x + 27)
Cross multiply,
1134.6(x + 27) = 1469.4(x - 27)
1134.6x + 30634.2 = 1469.4x - 39673.8
334.8x = 70308
x = 210 mph
