Consider the sequence of steps to solve the equation:
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Division Property of Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

→In Step 4, it is shown that the equation is:

3x = 30

→However, to solve for x, you must get it by itself. This means you need to get rid of the 3 that's being multiplied. So since the 3 is being multiplied to x, you must do the opposite of multiplication, which is division.

→As you can see, the total of 30 is decreased in Step 5, since it has been divided by 3, giving you a total of 10.

This shows that the property of equality that yields Step 5 is the <u>Division Property of Equality.</u>

How much longer will it take a car traveling at an average speed for 2 miles per hour to make the trip from San francisco to New
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

1445.6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between New York and San Francisco = 2902.8 miles (checked online)

Average speed of car = 2 mi/hr

Average speed of jet = 500 mi/hr

Time taken by Jet:

Time taken = Distance / speed

Time taken = 2902.8 / 500

Time taken = 5.8056 = 5.8 hours

Time taken by Car :

Time taken = Distance / speed

Time taken = 2902.8 / 2

Time taken = 5.8056 = 1451.4 hours

Time difference :

1451.4 - 5.8 = 1445.6 hours

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

B. 5 and 1/4 percent

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given

principal= $2460

time= 3 and 1/2 years= 3.5 years

SI= $452

Required

The rate

Step two:

we know that

SI= PRT/100

substituting our data we have

452= 2460*R*3.5/100

452=8610R/100

cross multiply

452*100= 8610R

divide both sides by 8610

45200/8610= R

R= 5.25%

R= 5 and 1/4 percent
