Answer:
3x=15
Step-by-step explanation:
Here's what I found on google about the distributive property-
To “distribute” means to divide something or give a share or part of something. According to the distributive property, multiplying the sum of two or more addends by a number will give the same result as multiplying each addend individually by the number and then adding the products together.
Now for the math-
3(x+5)
distribute the numbers- 3(x)+3(5)
solve- 3*5=15
3x+15
Hmmmmmm I think I know the answer to this
Answer:
Train A - 50 miles per hour
train B - 30 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x mph be the speed of the train B, then the speed of the train A is (x+20) mph.
In 3 hours,
- train A travels 3(x+20) miles
- train B travels 3x miles
In total, they covered the distance of 240 miles, so
![3(x+20)+3x=240\ \ \ \text{[Divide by 3]}\\ \\x+20+x=80\\ \\2x=80-20\\ \\2x=60\\ \\x=30\ mph\\ \\x+20=30+20=50\ mph](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=3%28x%2B20%29%2B3x%3D240%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5Ctext%7B%5BDivide%20by%203%5D%7D%5C%5C%20%5C%5Cx%2B20%2Bx%3D80%5C%5C%20%5C%5C2x%3D80-20%5C%5C%20%5C%5C2x%3D60%5C%5C%20%5C%5Cx%3D30%5C%20mph%5C%5C%20%5C%5Cx%2B20%3D30%2B20%3D50%5C%20mph)
