Distribute 7 to 3x and -2, and 4 to x and 5
7(3x - 2) = 21x - 14
4(x + 5) = 4x + 20
Combine like terms
21x + 4x = 25x
-14 + 20 = 6
25x + 6 is your answer
hope this helps
Let Home runs = X
Triples would be X-3 ( 3 less triples than home runs)
Doubles would be 3x ( 3 times as many doubles as home runs)
Singles would be 45(x-3) ( 45 times as many singles as triples)
Simplify the equation for singles to be 45x-153
Now you have X + x-3 + 3x + 4x-135 = 262
Simplify:
50x - 138 = 262
Add 138 to both sides:
50x = 400
Divide both sides by 50:
x = 400/50
x = 8
Home runs = x = 8
Triples = x-3 = 8-3 = 5
Doubles = 3x = 3(8) = 24
Singles = 45(x-3) = 45(8-3) = 45(5) = 225
Answer:
CD is equal to 3.2 m
Perimeter is equal to 37.5 m
You do distance over time to get the rate, so you'd do 27/2= 13.5mph then divide that in half since you're asking for the distance traveled in half that hour so you do 13.5/2 and you get 6.75 miles traveled in half and hour.
