Answer:

—5/4 or —1 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x – 5 = 5x + 2x

Collect like terms

—5 = 5x + 2x — 3x

—5 = 4x

Divide both side by the coefficient of x i.e 4

x = —5/4 or —1 1/4

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

π*AB

Step-by-step explanation:

I m not quite sure about your question because it is lack of details.

However, as my per understanding, Meghan decides to walk along arc AB it means she walks an interval equal to the circumference of the circle AB.

So, apply the formula in caculating the circumference of the circle, we have:

π*d = π*AB

So, she walk a π*AB distance.

Your doctor told you to eat 25 grams of fiber each day. You had 66 grams of fiber for breakfast. What percent of the 25 grams of
oksano4ka [1.4K]
To answer the question, divide the amount of fiber taken during breakfast by the total allowable amount then multiply by 100%. This gives us,

                                 (66 / 25) x 100% = 264 %

Thus, the answer is 264%. The answer clearly shows that the fiber taken so far is much more than the total allowable fiber intake.

Amma hikes 2and3/4 miles of nature trail in 1 hour and 15 minutes. How many miles does Amman hike per hour?
LekaFEV [45]
Formula
====
d = r * t

Givens
======
d = 2 3/4
t = 1 hour 15 minutes 
r = ????

Calculations
==========
You need to convert the 15 minutes to hours.
1 hour = 60 minutes
x hour = 15 minutes

1/60 = x/15
x = 15/60
x = 0.25 hours
so the time = 1 hours + 0.25 hours
t = 1.25 hours

Now you need to do something with the distance.
3/4 mile = 0.75 of a mile
So the distance = 2 + 0.75 = 2.75 miles

Now you are ready for the answer.
d = r * t you are looking for r
2.75 = r * 1.25
r = 2.75/1.25
r = 2.2 miles / hour

Note you could do this with fractions.
2 3/4 = 11/4
1 1/4 =  5/4

r = 11/4 // 5/4 =11/5 = 2 1/5 which is the same thing as 2.2. If your calculator can handle fractions (those kind of calculators cost about 10 dollars in Canada. It should be 8 in the US) that might be the way to do this problem.
