3x - 17 = 9x + 7

Rearrange on same sides
-17 - 7 = 9x - 3x
-24 = 6x

Divide by 6 on either sides to isolate 6
-\frac{24}{6} = \frac{6x}{6}
6 and 6 cancels out
-4 = x

Answer is:
B. x = -4

A circular jogging track forms the edge of a circular lake that has a diameter of 2 miles. Johanna walked once around the track
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

  C.  2.0 < t < 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

  time = distance / speed

The circumference of the lake is given by ...

  C = πd = 2π miles ≈ 6.28 miles

Then Johanna's time is ...

  (6.28 mi)/(3 mi/h) ≈ 2.09 h

This time is in the interval (2, 2.5), so matches choice C.

___

<em>Alternate solution</em>

If we take pi to be 3, then this boils down to ...

  2×3/3 = 2 . . . hours

Pi is on the order of 5% more than 3, so her time will be on the order of 5% more than 2 hours, or just above 2, but not as great as 2.5 hours. This sort of estimating can get you to the correct answer without a calculator.
