Step-by-step explanation:
Given
5x + 2x + 2 = 9x + 4
9x - 5x - 2x = 2 - 4
9x - 7x = - 2
2x = - 2
x = - 2 / 2
Therefore x = -1.
What I did was I subtracted 4500 minus 500 because it was a fee then I divide 4400 by 35 and I got 125 people.
Let the three consecutive number be x,x+1 and x+2.
It is given sum of three consecutive numbers is 46.
So,x+x+1+x+2=46
3x+3=46.
Subtracting 3 both sides
3x=46-3
3x=43.
x= 
Since
is not an integer there is no true answer to this problem.
Answer:
He was going about 26 miles an hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a fraction equal to
66 miles ÷ 2.5 hours
We want a unit rate where
1 is in the denominator,
so we divide top and bottom by 2.5
66 miles ÷ 2.5
2.5 hours ÷ 2.5
=
26.4 miles
1 hour
=
26.4 miles
hour
= 26.4 miles per hour
