x - boat speed; y - current speed; Path = 336:2 = 168 miles
1) 12 * (x + y) = 168; -> x + y = 14;
2) 14 * (x - y) = 168; -> x - y = 12;
1) x = 14 - y;
2) (14 - y) - y = 12;
14 - 2y = 12;
2y = 2;
y = 1 mph
x = 14 - 1 = 13 mph
Answer:
Boat speed = 13 mph
Current speed = 1 mph
Which of these is the algebraic expression for "5 times the sum of 2 and y?" (1 point)
A. 5 ⋅ 2 + y
B. 2 + 5 ⋅ y
C. 2(5 + y)
D. 5(2 + y) ✔
______________
Given:

To find:
The missing value.
Solution:
Let x be the missing value.
We have,


Subtract
from both sides.




Multiplying both sides by 5, we get

So, the missing value is 3.
Therefore, the correct option is C.
9514 1404 393
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We can start with the point-slope form of the equation for a line. To meet the given requirements, we can use a point of (5, 0) and a slope of -1. Then the equation in that form is ...
y -0 = -1(x -5)
Simplifying gives the slope-intercept form:
y = -x +5 . . . . . . . use the distributive property to eliminate parentheses
Adding x to both sides gives the standard form:
x + y = 5
__
<em>Explanation</em>
We know the line has the required intercept and slope because we chose those values to put into the point-slope form. Conversion from one form to another made use of the rules of equality, the additive identity element (y-0=y), and the distributive property.
Answer:
Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
x=−845
