Answer:
the answer for A is 27 and B is 36 and C is 82
Because you're trying to make them congruent, equal the two expressions to each other.
So, for #10 you would equal them so it would look like this.
2x+2=5x-19
Then you would just go ahead and simplify
2x+2=5x-19
-2x -2x
---------------
2= 3x -19
+19 +19
---------------
21=3x
--- ----
3 3
x=7
This means that x should be 7. You can check this just by plugging it in
2x+2
2(7)+2 = 16
5x-19
5(7)-19= 16
Same with #11.
x+8=3x-14
-x -x
--------------
8=2x-14
+14 +14
--------------
22=2x
--- ----
2 2
x=11
Check.
x+8
11+8= 19
3x-14
3(11) - 14 = 19
It takes her (100 mi)/(50 mi/h) = 2 h to get to her destination. She has 1 h 40 min = 100 min for her 100 mi return trip.
.. (100 mi)/(100 min) = (60 mi)/(60 min) = 60 mi/h
She must return at the rate of 60 mph to complete the trip in 3 h 40 min.
