Let x be the greater number.

x+(x-2)=44

2x-2=44

2x=46

x=23.

Therefore, the greater of the two is 23.

Two phone companies one is 11/+.16/ min And another is 20+.11/min How many minutes will make both equal amounts
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Company one charges $11 + $0.16 per min.

Then if you talk for x minutes, the cost will be:

C₁(x) = $11 + ($0.16 per min)*x

For company two, the prize is $20 + $0.11 per min, and if yo talk for x minutes, the cost will be:

C₂(x) = $20 + ($0.11 per min)*x

Now we want to find the value of x, the number of minutes, such that the cost is the same with both companies.

C₁(x) = C₂(x)

$11 + ($0.16 per min)*x = $20 + ($0.11 per min)*x

($0.16 per min)*x - ($0.11 per min)*x = $20 - $11

($0.05 per min)*x = $9

x = $9/($0.05 per min) = 180 mins

If you speak for 180 minutes, the cost is the same in both companies.

Is the formula s=(n-2)180
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Number of sides of the polygon

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula S=(n-2)180 is the sum of the measures of interior angles. So that's what S stands for. The only other variable remaining is n which is the number of sides of the polygon.

There's nothing I can do to help you understand this, you just have to memorize it.

A hiker cycles 9 miles in 2/3 of an hour. Make a chart and fill it in to show how far he will bike if he maintains the same pace
Arada [10]

Answer:

2 hours: 27 miles, 3 hours: 40.5 miles, 3.5 hours: 47.25 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) If a hiker hikes 9 miles in 2/3 of an hour, he will hike 4.5 (Half of 2/3 is 1/3 and half of 9 is 4.5) miles in 1/3 of an hour and 13.5 miles per hour. (1/3 times 3 gives us a whole and 4.5 times 3 is 13.5)

2.) 2 hours: 13.5 * 2 = 27 miles

3.) 3 hours: 13.5 * 3 = 40.5 miles

4.) 3.5 hours: 13.5 * 3.5 = 47.25 miles
