Answer
The distance from the house to the lake is (2.5 hr)*(48 mi/hr) = 120 miles. The rerurn trip would take (120 mi)/(40 mi/hr) = 3 hours. Distance equals rate times time, so the distance to the lake is 2 1/2 hours times 48 miles per hour.
I hope this helps
Answer:
x = -7
Solution:
4(1-x) + 2x = -3( x + 1)
4(1 - x) + 2x = -3 (x + 1)
4(-x + 1) + 2x = -3 (x + 1)
-4x - 4 + 2x = -3(x + 1)
-2x + 4 = -3 (x + 1)
2002=25,160
2001=22,644
2000=19,926.72 (need to round to 19,926)
2001:
25,160/10=2516
25,160-2516
2000:
22,644/10=2,264.4 (10%)
2,264.4/5=452.88 (2%)
2,264.4+452.88=2717.28 (12%)
22,644-2717.28=19.926.72
“a” would equal 7!! hope this helps :)
