3x-4+1=- 2x-5+5x
3x-5x+2x=4-1+5
- 2x+2x=8
0x=8
x=8/0
x=infinity

3x - 4 + 1 = -2x - 5 + 5x

First, simplify 3x - 4 + 1 to 3x - 3. / Your problem should look like: 3x - 3 = -3x - 5 + 5x
Second, simplify -2x - 5 + 5x to 3x - 5. / Your problem should look like: 3x - 3 = 3x - 5
Third, cancel 3x on both sides. / Your problem should look like: -3 = -5
Fourth, since -3 = -5 is false, there is no solution.

Answer: No solution

Two families are vacationing together, driving in separate cars. the harris family averages 45 mph, leaving hometown 6 minutes a

Kobotan [32]

Let x = amount of time the Arlen family must catch up to overtake the Harris family

In principle, the Harris and the Arlen family should cover the same distance. Since distance is speed x time,

45 (6+y) = 58y

270 + 45y = 58y

58y - 45y = 270

y = 270 ÷ 13

y= 20.77min

What is the value of x?

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

value of x = 5.8 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given,

Two right triangles EDH and EDG.

In right triangle EDH, EH = 56mm , DH = 35 mm

Using Pythagoras theorem we can find ED.

i.e EH² = ED²+DH²

56²=ED²+35²

ED²=56²-35²

ED = √(56²-35²) = 7√39 = 43.71 mm

Now, Consider right triangle EDG

Here, EG=44.8mm , GD = x+4 and ED = 7√39

Again using Pythagoras theorem,

EG² = ED² + DG²

44.8²= (7√39)²+ (x+4)²

(x+4)² = 44.8² - (7√39)²

x+4 = √(44.8² - (7√39)²)

x+4 = 9.8

or x = 9.8 - 4 = 5.8 mm

Hence we got the value of x = 5.8 mm
