1) Let's solve for x, writing this equation.
3x +8*59 =0
3x +472=0 <em>Subtract 472 from both sides</em>
3x = -472
x= -472/3 or -157.33
2) So the answer is x= -472/3
That is the centroid.
The point where the lines from each vertex of the triangle to the midpoints of the opposite sides intersect.
So k=katie's' age
m=mara's age
k is 2 times as old as m
k=2m
sum is 24
add means sum
k+m=24
so we have
k+m=24 and
k=2m
subsitute
2m+m=24
add
3m=24
divide both sides by 3
m=8
subsitute again
k=2m
k=2(8)
k=16
katie=16
mara=8
Answer:
Eric rode 2 more miles per week than Kim rode.
Step-by-step explanation:
Find how many miles per week Kim rode by dividing the number of miles she rode by the number of weeks:
135/9
= 15
Find how many miles per week Eric rode:
102/6
= 17
So, Kim rode 15 miles per week and Eric rode 17 miles per week.
The answer is Eric rode 2 more miles per week than Kim rode.
