Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
6x + 7 = 9x - 2
-3x = -9
x = 3
45 / 3 = 15
45 - 15 = 30
30 / 5 = 6
6 x 2 = 12
30 - 12 = 18
The answer is D:18
<span>Chris' average speed is 3.5mph:
Lets take Chris' brother speed = B
then Chris speed = (B+ 1) mph-------given in the question
and:
The average speed for covering 18 miles= chris' average speed + his brother's
average speed = (B+ 1) + B
since Speed = Distance covered / time taken
then average speed for 18 miles can also be found by: 18 miles/3 hours = 6 miles per hour
then we have; (B+ 1) + B = 6mph
(B +1) = (6-B)
B+B = 6-1=5
2B=5
B=5/2=2.5 mph (this is Chris' brother average speed)
Hence Chris' average speed is = B+1= 2.5+1= 3.5mph</span>
Since this is subtraction, everything must be turned negative in the second polynomial.
(6x^2 - 5x) - (2x^2 + 3x - 2)
6x^2 - 5x - 2x^2 - 3x - (-2)
6x^2 - 5x - 2x^2 - 3x + 2
Now, reorder the terms to make it easier.
6x^2 - 2x^2 - 5x - 3x + 2
Now, just combine like terms.
4x^2 - 5x - 3x + 2
4x^2 - 8x + 2
There’s the answer!
