<h3><u>The value of x is equal to -2.</u></h3>
5(2x + 8) = -8x + 4
<em><u>Distributive property.</u></em>
10x + 40 = -8x + 4
<em><u>Add 8x to both sides.</u></em>
18x + 40 = 4
<em><u>Subtract 40 from both sides.</u></em>
18x = -36
<em><u>Divide both sides by 18</u></em>
x = -2
Answer: the speed of the current is 9 mph.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of the current.
A boat can travel 21 mph in still water. If it travels 270 miles with the current. It means that the total speed with which the boat travelled with the current is (21 + x) mph.
Time = distance/speed
Time spent by the boat in travelling 270 miles is
270/(21 + x)
In the same length of time, it travels 108 miles against the current. It means that the total speed with which the boat travelled against the current is (21 - x) mph.
Time = distance/speed
Time spent by the boat in travelling 108 miles is
108/(21 - x)
Since the time is the same, then
270/(21 + x) = 108/(21 - x)
270(21 - x) = 108(21 + x)
5670 - 270x = 2268 - 108x
108x + 270x = 5670 - 2268
378x = 3402
x = 3402/378
x = 9
Answer:
<u><em>All real numbers</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>We can start out by knowing that</em></u><u><em> the domain of a graph is, the side, to side from the x axis directions. </em></u>
<u><em>We can see that the </em></u><u><em>line continues of the graph shown, meaning it is infinite. </em></u><u><em>Meaning the answer is </em></u><u><em>the domain is all real numbers.</em></u>
<u><em>We can double check by seeing that the other options don't work or aren't enough:</em></u>
<u><em /></u>
<u><em>The first wouldn't work becuase, yes that is part of the answer, but not the whole answer. The same goes for the others as well, they are on the line and are correct, but the best, and full answer is </em></u><u><em>"All real numbers"</em></u>
1st one is true and second one false.
The change in the volume of water in 1 minute is a decrease of 0.16 milliliters.
Since a water tank in Stewart's home had a small, steady leak loss of 1 3/5 mL in 10 min, to find the change in the volume of water in 1 minute, the following calculation must be performed:
- The total leak must be calculated and divided by the 10 minutes duration.
- 3/5 = 0.6
- 1 + 0.6 = 1.6
- 1.6 / 10 = 0.16
Therefore, the change in the volume of water in 1 minute is a decrease of 0.16 milliliters.
