Answer: 3\dfrac{1}{4} hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the time ( in hours ) you feel good and y be the time ( in hours ) that you get tired.

As per given , we have

x+y= 8

Since : Distance = Speed\times Time

So , we have

20x+12y=122

According to the given question , we have the following system of equations ,

x+y= 8--------(1)\\\\20x+12y=122------------------(2)

Multiply 12 on both sides of equation (1) , we get

12x+12y=96------------(3)

Eliminate equation (3) from (2) , we get

8x=26\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{13}{4}=3\dfrac{1}{4}

Hence, you felt 3\dfrac{1}{4} hours good.

When simplifying an expression using order of operations addition MUST
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

The answer is False,

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is False because in some expressions if there are parentheses and there is a subtraction problem in the parentheses but there is an addition problem in front of the parentheses that does not exactly mean that you do the addition first, this is because the subtraction is inside the parentheses and so since the subtraction is in parentheses it is done fist.

Find a positive and a negative coterminal angle for each given angle.<br> 75 degrees
maxonik [38]

Answer:

Positive co terminal angle = -105°

Negative co terminal angle = 225°

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the angle 75° and we have to find one positive and one negative co-terminal angle.

In order to find the co terminal angle, we add and subtract 180° to the given angle.

Therefore, the negative co terminal angle is given by

75 - 180 = -105°

And the positive co terminal angle is given by

75 + 180 = 225°
