Hi there
3(p + q) = q
Solve for P
Use the distributive property
(3)(p) + (3)(q) = q
3p + 3q = q
3p = q-3q
3p = -2q
p = -2q/3
The answer is D
If you have any further questions please let me know :)
Answer:
LM = 33 units
Explanation:
From the drawing:
LM = NP
41 - 2x = 7x + 5
41 - 5 = 7x + 2x
36 = 9x
x = 9
This means that:
LM = 41 - 2x
LM = 41 - 2(4)
LM = 33 units
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
The equation is p = (8/3) t + 24
In 2020, we will have about 48 horses.
Step-by-step explanation:
In 3 years the family increased by 32 - 24 = 8.
So the constant of proportionality = 8/3.
The required equation is p = (8/3)tx + 24
where p = the population and t is the number of years after 2011.
So in 2020 we can predict that in 2020 the number of horses
= (8/3) * 9 + 24
= 72/3 + 24
= 24 + 24
= 48.
Answer:
x = 387
Step-by-step explanation:
The wind acts in the opposite direction to the plane when the time is longer.
The wind acts in the same direction as the plane when the time is shorter.
Equation
d = r*t
Givens
- d = 1720
- x = plane's speed
- y = wind speed
- t1 = 5 hours
- t2 = 4 hours.
Substitution
- d = (x + y) * t
- 1720 = (x + y) * 4
- 1720 = (x - y) * 5
Since the two distances are the same, you can equate the right hand sides.
- (x + y) * 4 = (x - y)*5 Remove the brackets.
- 4x + 4y = 5x - 5y Add 5y to both sides
- 4x + 4y + 5y = 5x - 5y + 5y Combine all the terms.
- 4x + 9y = 5x Subtract 4x from both sides
- 9y + 4x - 4x = 5x - 4x Combine
- 9y = x
Now use one of the given equations with the distance
- 1720 = (x + y)*4 Substitute 9y for x
- 1720 = (9y + y) * 4 Combine
- 1720 = 10y * 4 Multiply the right
- 1720 = 40y Divide by 40
- 1720/40 = 40y/40 Do the division
- 43 = y y = wind speek
- 9y = x x = 9*y
- 9*43 = x
- x = 387 miles per hour.
