X= 2
First you would multiple 2 with what’s in the parentheses so

6x-14= -3x+4

And then you have to get the x on the same side so you’d have to add 3x to the other side

9x-14=4

And you want to get the x alone so you’d add 14 to the other side

9x=18

And then you divide both sides by 9

X=2

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

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

6x -14 =-3x +4

6x+3x = 14+4

9x= 18

x=18/9

x=2

Louisa ran at an average speed of five miles per hour along an entire circular park path. Calvin ran along the same path in the

docker41 [41]

Answer:

15 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x$ be the miles in the circular park path, $t_{L}$ the time Louisa takes to finish and $t_{C}$ the time Calvin takes to finish both in hours.

Then $x$ , the longitude is equal to the velocity times the time used to finish. So

$x=5t_{L}$

$x=6t_{C}$

And the difference between Louisa's time and Calvin' time is 30 minutes, half an hour. So:

$t_{C}=t_{L}-0.5$

Three equations, three unknowns, the system can be solved.

Equalizing the equation with x :

$5t_{L}=6t_{C}$

In this last equation replace $t_{C}$ with the other equation and solve:

$5t_{L}=6(t_{L}-0.5)\\ 5t_{L}=6t_{L}-3\\ 3=6t_{L}-5t_{L}\\ 3=t_{L}\\ t_{L}=3$

With Louisa's time find x:

$x=5t_{L}\\ x=5(3)\\ x=15$
