The 7 miles and 24 miles make up two "legs" of a right triangle.
The third side (or hypotenuse) is the distance between the towns.
distance^2 = 7^2 + 24^2
distance^2 = 49 + 576
distance^2 = 625
distance = square root of 625 or 25
Hey there!
2x + 1 < 5
SUBTRACT 1 to BOTH SIDES
2x + 1 - 1 < 5 - 1
SIMPLIFY IT!
2x < 5 - 1
2x < 4
DIVIDE 2 to BOTH SIDES
2x/2 < 4/2
SIMPLIFY IT!
x < 4/2
x < 2
Therefore, your answer is: x < 2

Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the 3-digit number is <u>abc</u> = 100a + 10b + c.
<u>We have:</u>
- 100a + 10b + c - 100c - 10b - a = 297
- b = a - 6
- a = 2c - 2
<u>Simplify the first equation:</u>
- 99a - 99c = 297
- a - c = 3
- a = c + 3
<u>Solve for c by substitution:</u>
- 2c - 2 = c + 3
- 2c - c = 3 + 2
- c = 5
<u>Find a:</u>
<u>Find b:</u>
<u>The number is:</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
= -4 ÷ ( 1/3 × (7 - 1/2) ) + 3
= -4 ÷ ( 1/3 × 13/2 ) + 3
= -4 ÷ 13/6 + 3
= -4 × 6/13 + 3
= -24/13 + 3
= -24/13 + 39/13
= 15/13
