The rate of Car A is x
The rate of Car B is x - 5
They travel the same distance. So we can make an equation:
4(x) = 4.5(x-5)
Solve for x.
4(x) = 4.5(x-5)
4x = 4.5x - 22.5
Subtract 4.5x on both sides
-0.5x = -22.5
Divide by -0.5 on both sides
x = 45
But we want the speed of Car B which is x - 5
So Car B's speed is 45 - 5 = 40
Your answer is 40
Answer:
The conclusion "T" logically follows from the premises given and the argument is valid
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us use notations to represent the steps
P: I take a bus
Q: I take the subway
R: I will be late for my appointment
S: I take a taxi
T: I will be broke
The given statement in symbolic form can be written as,
(P V Q) → R
S → (¬R ∧ T)
(¬Q ∧ ¬P) → S
¬R
___________________
∴ T
PROOF:
1. (¬Q ∧ ¬P) → S Premise
2. S → (¬R ∧ T) Premise
3. (¬Q ∧ ¬P) → (¬R ∧ T) (1), (2), Chain Rule
4. ¬(P ∨ Q) → (¬R ∧ T) (3), DeMorgan's law
5. (P ∨ Q) → R Premise
6. ¬R Premise
7. ¬(P ∨ Q) (5), (6), Modus Tollen's rule
8. ¬R ∧ T (4), (7), Modus Ponen's rule
9. T (8), Rule of Conjunction
Therefore the conclusion "T" logically follows from the given premises and the argument is valid.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, let's set up our equation to solve for x (time to travel 13 miles).
We use this equation to find x. To solve, we divide 13 by 65 to get our answer.
13 ÷ 65 = 0.2
Our answer: 0.2 hours
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Flip the equation 1) 8a + 2b = 2x
Subtract 2b from both sides 2)8a + 2b(-2b) =<em> 2x + (-2b)</em>
Divide by 8 on both sides 3) 8a/8 =<em> -2b - 2x/8</em>
4) a = 1/-4b + 1/4x
