3x+2(x-1)=9x=4
We move all terms to the left:
3x+2(x-1)-(9x)=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
-6x+2(x-1)=0
We multiply parentheses
-6x+2x-2=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
-4x-2=0
We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
-4x=2
x=2/-4
x=-1/2
Answer:
The distance from Greentown to Glenavon is D1 = g*(15+x) miles downstream.
The distance from Glenavon to Cambria is D2 = g*(15-x) miles upstream.
The difference D1 - D2 is 2 miles, according to the condition.
It gives you an equation g*(15+x) - g*(15-x) = 2, which you can easily solve and find "x", the rate of the current. x = 1/g miles per hour.
I think the best answer is 3 to 9 but thats not a answer so 3 to 6
