Hi there! The answer is x = 1
Let's solve this problem step by step!

First divide both sides of the equation by 8.

Now rewrite 100 as a power of 10.

Now we can use the following rule, which basically means that two different exponents of the same base must be the same

We now get this.

Finally divide both sides by 2.

~ Hope this helps you!
Answer:
x = 112
Step-by-step explanation:
1/8x + 2 = 16
Subtract 2 from both sides
1/8x = 14
Multiply both sides by 8
x = 112
Let us consider the initial position of train A,
. This implies that
.
Moreover, we have

This implies that the two equations are

The two trains meet if and only if their positions are the same, at the same time:

So, the two trains meet after 2 hours.
Answer:
y=-2x-1
Step-by-step explanation: This is because of rise/run. This means rise, count up or down until you hit the line that is horizontal to where your line intersects a whole point. Then run, what you count horizontal matches with your rise count. This means we can count 2/1 and since it's going down it's negative. So the slope is -2 and the y-intercept is -1 because it intersects through the y-intercept -1.
