Answer:
x = 816 kilometers per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following data;
Distance traveled by Kirk = 450km
Distance traveled by Thor = 408 km
Let the average driving speed of Thor be x.
Translating the word problem into an algebraic equation;
k = x + 6
We know that the time taken to cover a distance by an object with speed is given by the formula;
Time = distance/speed
Substituting into the equation, we have;
408/x = 405/x + 6
Cross-multiplying, we have;
408*(x + 6) = 405*x
408x + 2448 = 405x
408x - 405x = 2448
3x = 2448
x = 2448/3
x = 816 kilometers per hour.
Answer:
y = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x(y + 2) = 3x + y ← distribute parenthesis on left side
xy + 2x = 3x + y ( subtract 2x from both sides )
xy = x + y ( subtract y from both sides )
xy - y = x ← factor out y from each term on the left side )
y(x - 1) = x ← divide both sides by (x - 1)
y = 
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Write a function whose k(x) values are 5 more than four times the principal square root of x.
So,
the principal square root of x 
four times the principal square root of x 
5 more than four times the principal square root of x 
Thus,

X equals 4 and any number bigger then 4
