Lets assume that they are driving at an average of 70mph, and getting gas takes 10 minutes, and stopping to eat takes 30.
t=d/s
t=600/70
t=8.57
Stopping to eat twice is 30 x 2 = 60 (another hour)
and Gas is 10 x 3 = 30 minutes (0.5 hours)
Total time is,
8.57+1+0.5 =10.07
So the trip will take approx 10.7 hours total.
(This is using my assumptions, from my experience!)
(a) 95 = (x+7)*(x-7)
(b) 95 = (x+7)*(x-7)
Expand the brackets:
95 = x² -7x + 7x -49 = x² - 49
Subtract x² from both sides:
95-x² = -49
Subtract 95 from both sides:
-x²=-49-95
-x²= -144
Divide both sides by -1 to get rid of the negative numbers:
-x²/-1=-144/-1
x²=144
Take the square root of 144:
x = ± squareroot of 144
x = 12 or -12
x = 12 because you cannot have a negative age so Trina is 12 years old.
Answer:
Jana had 8 oranges, and Jordan had 15 oranges.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, identify what you know:
1) In total, Jana and Jordan had 23 oranges.
2) Jana had 7 less oranges than Jordan.
We can create a formula, where x equals the number of oranges Jana has.
23 = x + (x + 7)
16 = x + x (subtracted 7 from both sides)
x = 8 (divided both sides by 2)
So, now we know Jana had 8 oranges, which is 7 less than Jordan.
8 + 7 = ?
? = 15
Jana had 8 oranges, while Jordan had 15, for a total of 23 oranges.
Simple....
in 5 boxes you have 125 dishes...how many per box?
125/5=25
So, how many dishes in 15 boxes?
25*15=375
This means that in 15 boxes there are 375 dishes.
Thus, your answer.
Combine like terms-- you can combine the k's:
Now you have:
Simply divide both sides by 2.5 to find the value of k:
