6 - 3x = 5x - 10x + 8

Mathematics
1 answer:
Jet001 [13]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

6-3x=5x-10x+8=

move all terms to the left:

6-3x-(5x-10x+8)=0

add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-3x-(-5x+8)+6=0

get rid of parentheses

-3x+5x-8+6=0

add all the numbers together, and all the variables

2x-2=0

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

2x=2

x=2/2

x=1

At maximum speed, an airplane tracked 1720 miles against the wind in 5 hours. Flying with the wind, the plane can travel the sam
nataly862011 [7]
Recall your d = rt, distance = rate * time.

as the plane goes against the wind, the plane is not really flying at "x" mph, but is really going slower, at " x - y ", because the wind is subtracting speed from it.

likewise, when the plane is going with the wind, is not really going at "x" mph, but at " x + y ", is going faster due to the wind, thus

\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}
&\stackrel{miles}{distance}&\stackrel{mph}{rate}&\stackrel{hours}{time}\\
&------&------&------\\
\textit{against the wind}&1720&x-y&5\\
\textit{with the wind}&1720&x+y&4
\end{array}
\\\\\\
\begin{cases}
1720=(x-y)5\implies \frac{1720}{5}=x-y\\\\
344=x-y\implies \boxed{y}=x-344\\
---------------\\
1720=(x+y)4\implies \frac{1720}{4}=x+y\\\\
430=x+y\implies 430=x+\left( \boxed{x-344} \right)
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
430=2x-344\implies 774=2x\implies \cfrac{774}{2}=x\implies 387=x

In triangle ABC, the measure of angle B is 50 degrees. Select all possible values for the measures of A and C if ABC is an acute
galben [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of angle in a triangle = 180°

<A+<B+<C = 180

Given <B = 50°

Substituting into the formula

<A+50+<C = 180

<A+<C = 180-50

<A+<C = 130°

Since the ∆ABC is an acute triangle, the angles <A and <C must be angles less than 90° since acute angles are angles less than 90°

The possible values of <A and <C that will be acute and give a sum of 130° are;

∠A= 58° and ∠C= 72°

∠A= 80° and ∠C= 50°

∠A= 60° and ∠C= 70°

You can see that all the Angles are less than 90° and their sum is 130°
