5/12 of 5 hours is 2.08333333 hours
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
I think this is what it's asking for...
a) 17 is the total amount ran
5 is the number of miles
x is the hours (which is unknown)
you have to find x. the problem says that there are 5 miles per hour so your x would go with your 5. the 17 stays on the opposite side of the =
17=5x
b) to find the amount of time (x) just solve for x
17=5x is your equation
you now have to isolate the x (do this by dividing 5 on both sides of the equation)
5/x= x alone
17/5=3.4
3.4=x
* remember that x is hours in this problem, so round if you need too
Answer:
b = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve for b.
(3x−1)2=9x2−bx+1
Step 1: Flip the equation.
−bx+9x2+1=9x2−6x+1
Step 2: Add -9x^2 to both sides.
−bx+9x2+1+−9x2=9x2−6x+1+−9x2
−bx+1=−6x+1
Step 3: Add -1 to both sides.
−bx+1+−1=−6x+1+−1
−bx=−6x
Step 4: Divide both sides by -x.
b = 6
Hope this helpss!!!
-4/(x + 1) = -1/(x + 5)
this is a proportion so we cross multiply
-1(x + 1) = -4(x + 5)
-x - 1 = -4x - 20
-x + 4x = -20 + 1
3x = -19
x = -19/3
