Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-6 + 2x = 18

Combine like terms

6x -6 = 18

Add 6 to each side

6x-6+6 =18+6

6x = 24

Divide each side by 6

6x/6 = 24/6

x =4

The length of a rectangle is 5 more than twice the width. the perimeter is 130. what is the area?

vekshin1

L the length W the width

The length of a rectangle is 5 more than twice the width
L = 5+ 2W

the perimeter is equal the sum of sides =130

L+L+W+W =130

by subtitution we replace L by L = 5+ 2W

5+ 2W+5+ 2W +W+W = 130

6W= 120

w= 20 L = 5+ 2W= 5+ 40=45

A certain ferry moves up and down a river between Town A and

Blizzard [7]

Answer: 60 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

It takes ferry 2 hours to travel to town A and only $1.5\ hr$ to travel back to town B.

Speed of current is $u=5\ mph$

Suppose the speed of the ferry is $v$ mph

Distance traveled in both the cases is same, but it took more time traveling to city A that is, ferry is moving upstream and downstream for returning time.

$\Rightarrow 2(v-5)=1.5(v+5)\\\Rightarrow 2v-10=1.5v+7.5\\\Rightarrow 0.5v=17.5\\\Rightarrow v=35\ mph$
