Answer:

68 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

The time taken for the driver to drive 119 miles is 105 minutes.

The average speed is equal to distance divided by the time taken.

105 minutes is equal to 1.75 hours.

$S=119/1.75$

$S =68$

The driver's average speed is 68 miles per hour.

triangle ABC is isosceles, angle B is vertex angle , AB = 20x -2, AC =25x, and BC =12 x +20. Find x and the length of each side

lisov135 [29]

Length of AB = 18. 92

Length of AC = 26. 15

Length of BC = 32. 552

<h3>How to determine the sides of the triangle</h3>

Using the Pythagorean theorem, we have that

$(20 x-2)^2 = (12x + 20)^2 + (25x)^2$

Expand the bracket

$400x^2- 4 = 144x^2 + 400 + 625x^2$

Collect like terms

$400x^2 - 144x^2 - 625x^2 = 400 + 4$

$-369x^2 = 404$

Make x^2 subject

$x^2 = \frac{404}{369}$

$x = \sqrt{1.0948}$

$x = 1. 046$

Thus,

Length of AB = 20x -2 = 20(1. 046) - 2 = 18. 92

Length of AC = 25x = 25* 1.046 = 26. 15

Length of BC = 12x + 20 = 12(1. 046) + 20 = 32. 552
