Answer:
224 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
What you would do is take the 3 hours times the 46 mph to get 138 miles.
3*46=138
Next, multiply the 2 hours by the 43 mph to get 86 miles.
2*43=86
Lastly, you're going to add the two.
138+86=224 miles.
First, figure out what you do and don't know....
You do know that 3 times the sum of a number and 4 is 18 more than the number....you don't know the number so you make it the variable x
now take 3 times the sum of a number and 4 and make that an expression 3x+4 this expression is the same or equal to the sum of x and 18 x+18
3x+4=x+18
2x+4=18
2x=14
x=7
hope this helped :)
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm pretty sure some smart guy in Greece noticed this but:
Since 4 + 8 = 12, thats the only option where 2 of the smaller sides add up to the big one. I don't know much of the reasoning behind this but my math teacher showed it to us by using Popsicle sticks to make triangles. You can try it if that helps you think about it. Apparently, if you add up the 2 smaller sides, then it HAS to be more than the biggest side.
