Let’s call the speed of the slower car S, then the speed of the other is S+10mph.
At 5pm they have been travelling for 3 hours. The slower car travels a distance 3S and the faster one 3(S+10).
But the two distances must add up to 240 miles so 3S+3(S+10)=240, 3S+3S+30=240, 6S=210, S=35 mph. The faster car’s speed is 45mph. We can see that 3S is the same distance as 3x, so x=S=35 mph, and the distance the faster car travels is 3×45=135 miles.
Answer:
X > (greater than or equal to) -7
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 15 > -6
3x > -21 (subtract 15 from both sides)
X > -7 (divide both sides by 3)
Remember: PEMDAS - Parentheses, exponents, multiply/divide, add/subtract
Distribute: 9(1+x) = 9+9x
19 - 5x = 9 + 9x
Add 5x to both sides of the equation and subtract 9 from both sides.
19 - 5x + (5x) = 9 + 9x + (5x)
19 - (9) = 9 - (9) + 14x
10 = 14x
Divide both sides by 14 to get the variable on its own.
10/14 = 14x/14
10/14=x
5/7 = x
If the equation is in the form of y = mx + C, where m and C are real numbers, the slope (which means gradient) of the line is the coefficient of x (I.e. the number to the left of x in simple language), which is m.
In this case, m = 54 and C = -13pie. Both are real numbers, which means that this equation satisfies the form of y = mx + C
m is the coefficient of x, which is 54. 54 is the gradient of this line, which means that for every 54 y-axis units the line increases, the line increases 1 x-axis unit.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer: -2(1/2)
Step-by-step explanation:
I CAN HELP A GIRL OUT!
anyways...
calculate the difference first.
(-13/12) - 14/9
then, rewrite the expression.
-13/12 - 14/9
the solution is -95/36.
when it's converted to decimal form, it turns into -2.638. so, our BEST estimate for the value of the expression is -2(1/2) (the second option)
