Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

7(4x+1)−3x=5x−13

Distribute

28x +7 -3x = 5x -13

Combine like terms

25x+7 = 5x-13

Subtract 5x from each side

25x-5x +7 = -13

20x +7 = -13

Subtract 7 from each side

20x+7-7 = -13-7

20x = -20

Divide by 20

20x/20 = -20/20

x = -1

Mai and Priya were on scooters. Mai traveled 15 meters in 6 seconds. Priya travels 22 meters in 10 seconds. Who was moving faste

Andrews [41]

Answer:

Mai was moving faster.

As, she covered a greater distance in the same amount of time.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Mai traveled 15 meters in 6 seconds and Priya travels 22 meters in 10 second.

Calculate the speed of both;

Speed defined as the rate at which an object covers distance.

$Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}$

Mai traveled 15 meters in 6 seconds

then;

Speed = $\frac{15}{6} = 2.5 m/s$

Priya travels 22 meters in 10 second.

then;

Speed = $\frac{22}{10} = 2.2 m/s$

Reason: Mai traveled faster because she covered a greater distance in the same amount of time.
