I don't know.  But I know how to find it.  Let's work it out together:

                                              <u>5x  =  2x + 20</u>

Subtract  2x  from each side:    3x  =  20

Divide each side by  3 :              <em>x  =  20/3</em>  or    ( 6 and 2/3 ).

He hypotenuse of a right triangle is three times the length of one of the legs. the length of the other leg is 648‾‾‾‾√648 feet.
pantera1 [17]
Let length of  the hypotenuse = 3x and length of given leg be x feet.

then (3x)^2 = x^2 + 648
8x^2 = 648
x^2 = 81


so x = 9 and 3x = 27

Hypotenuse is 27 feet and the leg equals 9 feet.

The route will take four hours and fifteen minutes. If you start at 9:50 and count four hours, you'll get to 1:50, add ten to get to 2:00, then add 5 minutes to get to 2:05. Four hours plus ten minutes plus five minutes, 4:15.
