Answer:

<h2>x = 7</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x-4)-5=x-3\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\\3x-12-5=x-3\\3x-17=x-3\qquad\text{add 17 to both sides}\\3x-17+17=x-3+17\\3x=x+14\qquad\text{subtract}\ x\ \text{from both sides}\\3x-x=x-x+14\\2x=14\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\dfrac{2x}{2}=\dfrac{14}{2}\\\\x=7

Nuetrik [128]
The circumference of a circle is C=2πR, where R is the radius of the circle and π≈3.14.

So if we open the circumference of the circle into a straight line segment, the length of this segment is C=2πR≈2*3.14*R=6.28R

4 rotations mean 4 circumferences that is 4 segments of length 6.28R, 
which makes a linear distance of 4*6.28R=25.12R


i: the radius of the smaller wheel is R=r, thus it covers a distance of 25.12r feet

ii: the radius of the smaller wheel is R=2r, thus it covers a distance of  25.12*2r=50.24r (feet)

50.24r is twice 25.12r, thus the larger wheel traveled Twice the distance of the smaller one.


Answer: the larger covered twice the distance of the smaller.

liraira [26]
If you mean 165x = 31  , X = <span>0.19871794871
if you mean 16*5x = 31 , X = .3875
if you mean 16+5x=31 , X = 3
If you mean 16 -5x=31 , X = -3
Hope one of these is correct.</span>
