Answer:
6x-12=-48
6x=-36
x=-6
Step-by-step explanation:
C = 3b+2d is the same as 3b+2d = C
Let's isolate d. To do this, we first need to subtract 3b from both sides
3b+2d = C
3b+2d-3b = C-3b
2d = C-3b
Then divide both sides by 2
2d = C-3b
2d/2 = (C-3b)/2
d = (C-3b)/2
Take note of the parenthesis as they are very important. We want to divide ALL of C-3b over 2. We don't want to just divide -3b over 2.
The answer choices you have aren't 100% clear but I have a feeling your teacher meant to say d = (C-3b)/2 instead of d = C-3b/2 for choice A
If that assumption is correct, then the answer is choice A.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
the geo. mean is the nth root of the product of n numbers
Here there are two numbers; geo. mean is the square root of their product
g = √(16 * 36)
g = 4 * 6
g = 24
Answer:
3.5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Ediburgh -------------------------------350 miles-------------------------London
Let the distance traveled by train from Edin to London be "x"
hence the distance traveled by train from London to Edin would be "350-x"
- The rate of Edin to London train is 60
- The rate of London to Edin train is 40
Let the time they meet be"t"
Now, we know distance formula to be D = RT
Where
D is distance
R is rate
and
T is time
<u>Train from Edin to London:</u>
x = 60t
<u>Train from London to Edin:</u>
350-x = 40t
Solving for x:
350 - 40t = x
We put this into first equation:
x = 60t
350 - 40t = 60t
350 = 100t
t = 350/100
t = 3.5
They meet after 3.5 hours
