Total distance John drove=450 miles
total time=8 hours
let the number of hours he drove on highway be x, number of hours he drove on turnpike will be (8-x) hours
since
distance=speed*time
distance traveled in highway=50x
distance traveled in turnpike=60(8-x)
thus the total distance will be:
50x+60(8-x)=450
simplifying the above
50x+480-60x=450
-10x=450-480
-10x=-30
thus
x=3 hours
Thus he drove on highway for 3 hours.

What is the value of x?
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

value of x = 5.8 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given,

Two right triangles EDH and EDG.

In right triangle EDH, EH = 56mm , DH = 35 mm

Using Pythagoras theorem we can find ED.

i.e EH² = ED²+DH²

56²=ED²+35²

ED²=56²-35²

ED = √(56²-35²) = 7√39 = 43.71 mm

Now, Consider right triangle EDG

Here, EG=44.8mm , GD = x+4  and ED = 7√39

Again using Pythagoras theorem,

EG² = ED² + DG²

44.8²= (7√39)²+ (x+4)²

(x+4)² = 44.8² - (7√39)²

x+4 = √(44.8² - (7√39)²)

x+4 = 9.8

or x = 9.8 - 4 = 5.8 mm

Hence we got the value of x = 5.8 mm

Can someone please please please help.?
Luden [163]

Answer:

<h2>43°</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

In a cyclic quadrilateral, the sum of two opposite angles are equal.

m<R + m<P = 180°

plugging the values:

3y + 8 + y = 180°

Combine the like terms:

4y + 8 = 180°

Subtract 8 on both sides

4y + 8 - 8 = 180 - 8

Calculate the difference

4y = 172

divide both sides of the equation by 4

4y/4 = 172/4

calculate

y = 43°

Hope this helps...
