Answer:

x=10/3

Step-by-step explanation:

8x-2-5x=8

then you group like terms=

8x-5x-2=8

add similar elements

3x-2=8

Add 2 to both sides

3x-2+2=8+2

Then lastly divide both sides by 3

3x/3=10/3

And you get 10/3

A bus as speed of 20m/s begin to slow at constant acceleration of 8.00m/s2 along a straight line find the average speed for the

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

-20 m/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the average speed is shown below:

Given that

The initial velocity of the bus, u = 20 m/s

Aceleration of the bus, -a = 8 m/s²

time of motion, t = 5 s

Now The final velocity of the bus is

v = u + at

v = 20 + (-8 × 5)

v = 20 - 40

v = -20 m/s.

a pipeline is laid at a rate of 1/8 mile per day.How many miles of line would be completed in 29 1/2 days

Setler [38]

Answer:

In 29 1/2 days, the total pipe laid is $(\frac{59}{16})$ mile.

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of pipe laid in 1 day = 1/8 mile

So, the length of pipe laid in half day = half of (1/8 mile)

= $\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{8} = \frac{1}{16} \textrm{mile}$

Now, 29 1/2 days on simplification means 29 and half day.

So, length of pipe in 29 days = $29 \times \frac{1}{8} = \frac{29}{8}$ mile

Now adding the length laid in half day = $\frac{29}{8} + \frac{1}{16} = \frac{29 (2) + 1}{16} = \frac{59}{16} \textrm{mile}$

So, in 29 1/2 days, the total pipe laid is $(\frac{59}{16})$ mile.
