Answer: 83.5
Step-by-step explanation:
I think you're asking for what the x value is??
to find this you have to have the variable(s) in this case, x, on one side of the equation.
you need to combine like terms and also subtract 8.
2x+8-22x=-2
-8
2x-22x=-10
Combine like terms:
-20x=-10
Now divide by -20:
x=1/2
Your solution is:
x=1/2
Answer:
The equation of the line in the slope-intercept form is y = -5x + 79
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept form of the linear equation is y = m x + b, where
- m is the slope of the line
- b is the y-intercept
∵ The slope of the line is -5
∴ m = -5
∵ The form of the equation is y = m x + b
→ Substitute the values of m in the form of the equation
∴ y = -5x + b
→ To find b substitute x and y in the equation by the coordinates
of any point on the line
∵ The line passes through the point (18, -11)
∴ x = 18 and y = -11
∵ -11 = -5(18) + b
∴ -11 = -90 + b
→ Add 90 to both sides to find b
∵ -11 + 90 = -90 + 90 + b
∴ 79 = b
→ Substitute it in the equation
∴ y = -5x + 79
∴ The equation of the line in the slope-intercept form is y = -5x + 79
The main formula is:
Distance traveled = (average)Speed*Time.
i) when Ted Climbs up:
let D be the distance, T the time it takes Ted to climb, S_u=3mph is the speed as Ted climbs up.
then: D=3T
ii) when Ted goes down:
D is the distance, T-40 the time it takes Ted go down, S_d=5mph is the speed as Ted climbs up.
then: D=5(T-40)
equalizing the equations in i and ii:
(D=) 3T=5(T-40)
3T=5T-200
200=2T
T=100 (minutes)
the total length of the hike is T+T-40=100+100-40=160 (minutes)
Answer: 160 minutes
