The best way to do this is to set up a proportion
2 5
--- = ----
5 x
then cross multiply and divide
5 times 5=25/2=12.5
he would move 12.5 feet in 5 hours
I hope I've helped!
Answer:
(-1, -1/2)
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the x coordinate of the midpoint, add the x coordinates and divide by 2
( -11+9)/2 = -2/2 = -1
To find the y coordinate of the midpoint, add the y coordinates and divide by 2
(0+-1)/2 = -1/2
(-1, -1/2)
Answer:
x < 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Writing this entirely with symbols, we get:
-5(x - 1) > -40
We must solve for x.
Carrying out the multiplication, we get:
-5x + 5 > -40, or
-5x > -45
Dividing both sides by -5 isolates x:
x < 9
Note that when working with an inequality such as this one, dividing both sides by a negative number requires changing the direction of the inequality symbol.
