Answer:

$x = 24$

Step-by-step explanation:

$- x = - 24$

If you didn't know, this equation is actually equal to

$- 1 \times x = - 1 \times 24$

Divide -1 on both sides:

$x = 24$

A car travels 20 mph slower in a bad rain storm than in sunny weather. the car travels the same distance in 2 hrs in sunny weath

ycow [4]

You can create two equations.

"<span>A car travels 20 mph slower in a bad rain storm than in sunny weather."
</span>
$\sf x-20=y$

Where 'x' represents speed in sunny weather and 'y' represents speed in rainy weather.

"<span>The car travels the same distance in 2 hrs in sunny weather as it does in 3 hrs in rainy weather."

$\sf 2x=3y$

</span>Where 'x' represents speed in sunny weather and 'y' represents speed in rainy weather.

We want to find the speed of the car in sunny weather, or 'x'. Plug in the value for 'y' in the first equation into the second equation.

$\sf \boxed{\sf x-20}=y$
$\sf 2x=3y\rightarrow2x=3(x-20)$

Distribute:

$\sf 2x=3x-60$

Subtract 3x to both sides:

$\sf -x=-60$

Divide -1 to both sides:

$\sf x=60$

So the car goes 60 mph in sunny weather.

Write equations for the horizontal and vertical lines passing through the point (4, -5).

raketka [301]

Answer:

Horizontal line: y=-5

Vertical line: x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

As we have to determine the equations for the horizontal and vertical lines passing through the point (4, -5).

To determine the equation for the horizontal line passing through the point (4, -5), we must observe that the horizontal line will always have the same y-value regardless of the x-value.

Therefore, the equation of the horizontal line passing through the point (4, -5) will be: y=-5

To determine the equation for the vertical line passing through the point (4, -5), we must observe that the vertical line will always have the same x-value regardless of the y-value.

Therefore, the equation of the vertical line passing through the point (4, -5) will be: x=4

Hence:

Horizontal line: y=-5

Vertical line: x = 4

Answer:

A. x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

x+20+10x=20+9x

cancel equal terms

x+10x+9x

add x to 10x

11x=9x

move variable to left

11x-9x=0

subtract 11x to 9x

2x=0

divide Both sides by 2

x=0
