We can use the distributive property to set up an expression that is equal to this problem.

14 times 8 is 112
14 times -6 is -84x
14 times 12 is 168
(If you don't know the distributive property ask and I can explain it)

We can combine that together to get:

112 +168 -84x
Or, condense it further:

280-84x is equivalent to 14(8-6x+12)

So which is equivilent
pemdas

(8-6x+12)
(20-6x)
multiply/distribute
1/4(20-6x)
5-6/4x=5-3/2x=-3/2x+5 and thats your final answer -3/2x+5

It took Fred 17 days to save $36.55. At that rate, how long would it take him to save $70.95?

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Fred would take 33 days to save $ 70.95.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of days ( $t$ ) is directly proportional to the quantity of money saved ( $c$ ), in monetary units, then we can calculate the time taken to save $ 70.95 by simple rule of three:

$t = 17\,d\,\times \frac{\$\,70.95}{\$\,36.55}$

$t = 33\,d$

Fred would take 33 days to save $ 70.95.

a car travels 120 mi. a second car, travelling 10 mph faster than the first car, makes the same trip in 1 hr less time. find the

Murrr4er [49]

Let x be the speed of the first car, then (x + 10) is the speed of the second car.

We can write the equation by the condition of the problem:

$\frac{120}{x}- \frac{120}{x+10}=1 \\ 120(x+10)-120(x)=1(x)(x+10) \\ 120x+1200-120x=x^2+10x \\ x^2+10x-1200=0 \\ D=b^2-4ac=10^2-4*1*(-1200) = 100+4800 = 4900 \\ x_{1,2}= \frac{-bб \sqrt{D} }{2a} \\ \\ x_1= \frac{-10- \sqrt{4900} }{2}= \frac{-10-70}{2} = -\frac{80}{2}=-40 \ \ \ \O$

$x_2= \frac{-10+ \sqrt{4900} }{2}= \frac{-10+70}{2} = \frac{60}{2}=30$ mph speed of the first car

Then 30+10=40 mph speed of the second car

Answer: 30mph and 40 mph.

I hope this helps.
