Malcolm maximum speed is 200 km/h and Ravi maximum speed is 320 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets assume Malcolm maximum speed to be M km/h and Ravi maximum speed to be R km/h

Average of their maximum speed is; (M+R)/2 =260 km/h

This can be simplified to M+R= 260*2

M+R = 520.......................................(I)

When Malcolm's speed is doubled,

2M=R+80 km/h ----------------------(ii)

The two equations are;

M+R = 520 ------ M=520-R ----(i)

2M=R+80 ---------------------------(ii)

Replacing M with (i) above

2M=R+80

2(520-R) =R+80

1040 -2R =R+80

1040-80 = R+2R

960 = 3R

960/3 =R

320 =R

M+R =520

M=520-320 =200

Malcolm maximum speed is 200 km/h and Ravi maximum speed is 320 km/h

5. 3x + 5y + 5z =1<br> x - 2y = 5<br> 2x + 4y = 11

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 3 equations

3x + 5y + 5z = 1 → (1)

x - 2y = 5 → (2)

2x + 4y = 11 → (3)

Use (2) and (3) to solve for x and y

Multiply (2) by 2

2x - 4y = 10 → (4)

Add (3) and (4) term by term

4x = 21 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = $\frac{21}{4\\}$

Substitute this value of x into (3)

2 × $\frac{21}{4\\}$ + 4y = 11

$\frac{21}{2\\}$ + 4y = 11 ( subtract $\frac{21}{2\\}$ from both sides )

4y = $\frac{1}{2}$ ( divide both sides by 4 )

y = $\frac{1}{8\\}$

Substitute the values of x and y into (1) and solve for z

3 × $\frac{21}{4\\}$ + 5 × $\frac{1}{8\\}$ + 5z = 1

$\frac{63}{4}$ + $\frac{5}{8}$ + 5z = 1

$\frac{131}{8}$ + 5z = 1 ( subtract $\frac{131}{8}$ from both sides )

5z = - $\frac{123}{8}$ ( divide both sides by 5 )

z = - $\frac{123}{40}$

Solution is

x = $\frac{21}{4\\}$ , y = $\frac{1}{8\\}$ , z = - $\frac{123}{40}$

Use the Associative Property of Addition to write an expression equivalent to (n + 2) + 7. Which expression is equivalent to (n

insens350 [35]

Answer:

The correct answer is OB.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us recall the Associative Property of Addition: given three real numbers $a$ , $b$ and $c$ the following equality holds:

$(a+b) + c = a+(b+c)$ .

Let us remark that the Associative Property of Addition tells us that we can perform the sums in any order. So,

$(n+2)+7 = n+(2+7)$ .

In the other options there was used the Commutative Property of Addition.

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

- 7/30

Step-by-step explanation:

9/10 + g = 2/3

So subtract 9/10 from both sides of the equation to get g = -7/30
