<span>5x - 1 = 26
Add 1 to both sides
5x = 27

Steve travels 2 times as fast as Jill. Traveling in opposite directions, they are 120 miles apart after 2.5 hours. Find their ra
Tcecarenko [31]

let's recall that d = rt, distance = rate * time.

we know that Steve is twice as fast as Jill, so say if Jill has a speed or rate of "r", then Steve is traveling at 2r fast, now we know they both in opposite directions have covered a total of 120 miles, so if Jill covered "d" miles then Steve covered 120 -d, check the picture below.

\begin{array}{lcccl} &\stackrel{miles}{distance}&\stackrel{mph}{rate}&\stackrel{hours}{time}\\ \cline{2-4}&\\ Jill&d&r&2.5\\ Steve&120-d&2r&2.5 \end{array}~\hfill \begin{cases} d=2.5r\\[2em] 120-d=5r \end{cases} \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{substituting on the 2nd equation}}{120-2.5r=5r\implies 120=7.5r}\implies \cfrac{120}{7.5}=r\implies \stackrel{Jill's}{16=r}~\hfill \stackrel{Steve's}{32}

Help asap<br> missing work
lidiya [134]

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

In ΔLMK

short leg /long leg = 18/24

In ΔLMJ

short leg /long leg = 24/JK

Now we make them equal

(18/24) = (24/JK), cross multiply

  18·JK = 24², divide both sides by 18

      JK = 24²/18

     JK = 32

A fish population in a lake decreases by 2% each year. What is the common ratio? (Write your answer as a decimal)
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

the common ratio is 0.98.

Step-by-step explanation:

A fish population in a lake decreases by 2% each year. We are asked to find the common ratio.

The decrease of population of fish 2% annually means the population becomes next year 100% - 2% = 98%

Therefore, the common ratio would be 98%. Upon converting 98 percent to a decimal we will get,

98% = \frac{98}{100}=0.98

Therefore, the common ratio or decay factor is 0.98.
