The equation is: 5x - x = 1044
Now, What you have to do here is simple.
First, subtract x from 5x and you get 4x.
4x =1044
Here you divide both sides by 4. 4x becomes x and 1044 becomes 261.
x = 261
We have the first number. To get the other one we have to multiply 261 by 5.
261 * 5 = 1305
the answer is 1305

So:
x= 261
5x=1305

Hope you understand.

A cruise ship is traveling south going approximately 22 mph when it hits the Gulf Stream flowing east at 4 mph. Which expression
alexira [117]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The correct option is

a) Resultant=\sqrt{22^{2} +4^{2} }

<h2>Why?</h2>

Since a right triangle is formed, we can calculate the resultant force using the Pythagorean Theorem which states that:

c=\sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2}}

Where,

c, is the hypothenuse.

a, is one triangle leg.

b, is the other triangle leg.

So, we are given the information:

a=22mph

b=4mph

So, calculating the resultant force (hypothenuse), we have:

Resultant=\sqrt{22^{2} +4^{2} }

Hence, the expression that would find the result velocity is:

a) [tex]Resultant=\sqrt{22^{2} +4^{2} }[/tex]

Have a nice day!

Multiply 4x(-3x - 5)
Scilla [17]
Using the distributive property the product is -12x-20. To distribute you take the numbers and or variables outside of the paranthesis and multiply it by each one in the parenthesis  such that 4x is multiplied by -3x getting -12x and multiplying 4x by -5 and the product is -20x and all together the answer is -12x-20

In 1985, the price of a gallon of milk cost about $2.20 per gallon. In 2005, the price of a gallon of milk cost about $3.50 per
Assoli18 [71]

the percent increase in the price of a gallon of milk from 1985 to 2005 is 59%

Define percent increase

Percent increase can be described as the rise in the value of an item, in this case the value is milk.

Write out the parameters

In 1985 the price of a gallon of milk is $2.20

In 2005 the price is $3.50

Formula for percent increase

new price-old price/new price × 100

Calculate the percent increase

new price= $3.50

old price= $2.20

= 3.50-2.20/2.20

= 1.3/2.20

= 0.59 × 100

= 59%

Hence the percent increase from 1985 t0 2005 is 59%
