Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x + 2(5x - 6) = -3x - 39

-<u>4x</u> + <u>10x</u> - 12 = -3x - 39

-4x + 10x = 6x

6x - 12 = -3x - 39

<u>+3x</u><u>      _ </u><u>+3x        </u>

9x - 12 = -39

<u>     </u><u>+ 12</u><u>   </u><u>+12</u>

<u></u>

\frac{9x}{9} = \frac{-27}{9}

x = -3

-30 = -30

I will give you everything I can do:

11)

Lets say Car A travels at x mph. That means Car B travels at x+2 mph.

Both of them are traveling towards each others, so we can say the total speed is 2x+2.

Now i takes 3 hrs and we know the distance.

Since R*T=D

Then 3(2x+2)=270

So 2x+2=90

2x=88

x=44

12)

To find perpendicular we want to find the opposite reciprocal of the original slope. Therefore the slope is 3/2.

Now we must find the equation of the line with the given variable.

First find b.

5=3/2*4+b

b = -1

So the equation of this line is:

y=3/2x-1

13) All work will be shown below.

6-3(-2-4x)=2(3(x-4)+7)

6+6+12x=2(3x-12+7)

12+12x=2(3x-5)

12+12x=6x-10

6x=-2

x = -1/3

14)

First we must find the amount each train traveled.

The speed of F train(Freight train)=x

The speed of P train(passenger train)=x+6

Their combined speed is 2x+6

It takes 2 hrs to cover 100 miles

So 2(2x+6)=100

2x+6=50

2x=44

x=22

So the freight train covered 44 miles and the passenger train covered 56 miles.

To find average speed you must do Total Distance/Total Time.

44/2 and 56/2

Which are 22 and 28.

The average speed of F train is 22 mph and average speed of P train is 28 mph.

15) Again opposite reciprocal.

3/5 -> -5/3

Work:

-4=-3*-5/3+b

-4=5+b

b=-9

y = -5/3x-9

16)

F=kx-kx0

First kx0 = 0

So F=kx

So x=F/k

Rectangle ABCD with coordinates A(1, 1), B(4, 1), C(4, 2), and D(1, 2) dilates with respect to the origin to give rectangle A'B'
Virty [35]

Scale factor is a ratio. The correct option is C.

<h3>How are scale drawings formed?</h3>

For a particular scale drawing, it is already specified that all the measurements' some constant scaled version will be taken. For example, let the scale be K feet to s inches.

Then it means

\rm 1\:  ft : \dfrac{s}{k}\:  in.

All feet measurements will then be multiplied by s/k to get the drawing's corresponding lengths.

The length of AB can be written as,

AB = √[(1-4)²+ (1-1)²]

AB = 3

Since the length A'B' is 6 units, therefore, the scale factor will be,

Scale factor = (Length after transformation)/(Length before transformation)

Scale factor = 6 /3 = 2

Hence, the correct option is C.
