Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, let's set up our equation to solve for x (time to travel 13 miles).
We use this equation to find x. To solve, we divide 13 by 65 to get our answer.
13 ÷ 65 = 0.2
Our answer: 0.2 hours

Answer:
D. 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The segment lengths are equal, so ...
x^2 = 90-x
x^2 +x -90 = 0 . . . . . . add x-90 to put in standard form
(x +10)(x -9) = 0 . . . . . factor
The solutions are the values of x that make the factors zero: -10, 9.
The positive value of x is 9.
An equvilent equation
remember you can do anything to an equation as long asyou do it to both sides
assuming yo have
x+y=1 and
x-3y=9
mulitply both by 2
2x+2y=2
2x-6y=18
those are equvilent
ok, solve initial
x+y=1
x-3y=9
multiply first equation by -1 and add to 2nd equation
-x-y=-1
<u>x-3y=9 +</u>
0x-4y=8
-4y=8
divide both sides by -4
y=-2
sub back
x+y=1
x-2=1
add 2
x=3
x=3
y=-2
(3,-2)
if we test it in other one
2x+2y=2
2(3)+2(-2)=2
6-4=2
2=2
yep
2x-6y=18
2(3)-6(-2)=18
6+12=18
18=18
yep
solution is (3,-2)
Answer:
5 pizzas
Step-by-step explanation: If you have 10 people and each will get two slices then you will need 20 pieces of pizza because 10x2 is 20. If each pizza has 4 slices then you will need 5 pizzas because 4/20 is 5.
Answer:
(7/8 - 4/5)^2 = 9/
1600
= 0.005625
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract: 7/
8
- 4/
5
= 7 · 5/
8 · 5
- 4 · 8/
5 · 8
= 35/
40
- 32/
40
= 35 - 32/
40
= 3/
40
For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of both denominators - LCM(8, 5) = 40. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 8 × 5 = 40. In the next intermediate step, the fraction result cannot be further simplified by canceling.
In words - seven eighths minus four-fifths = three fortieths.
Exponentiation: the result of step No. 1 ^ 2 = 3/
40
^ 2 = 32/
402
= 9/
1600
In words - three-fortieths squared = nine one-thousand six-hundredths.
