The sum is 61 for this equation.
X= 5 or -8
Add all the like terms and set it equal to 49, use quadratic formula or factoring.
Please, do not post more than 1 or 2 questions at a time. Out of courtesy I will address one of your six questions here:
<span>2x + 4 = 3(x – 2) + 1
You are to solve this for x.
1) perform the multiplication: </span><span>2x + 4 = 3x - 6 + 1
2) combine like terms: 4+6-1 = x
3) solve for x: x = 11
4) check: Is 2(11) + 4 = 3(11-2) + 1 true?
Is 22+4 = 33-6 true? NO. Try again, looking for the mistake:
</span><span>2x + 4 = 3(x – 2) + 1 => 2x + 4 = 3x - 6 + 1
4 = x - 5
9 = x
Check: Is 2(9) + 4 = 3(9-2) + 1 true? Is 18+4 = 22 true? YES.
The solution to #1 is x = 9 (answer).
Submit your other questions separately, please.

Answer:
They'll meet after 200 meters , if they simultaneously start running towards each other.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x =distance travelled by dog and 200-x be the distance travelled by cat. Inorder to meet, the sum of their travelled distances shall be equal to 200 meters as they are far apart by 200 meters.
Dog: Distance =Speed x time: x=30t
Cat: Distance = 200-x
=24t
The sum of their distance travelled shall be 200 meters: 30t+ 24t= 200;54t=200;t=200/54=3.7secs
So they will meet after 3.7 seconds
To check:
Distance travelled by dog :x=30(3.7)
=111.11 meters
Distance travelled by cat: 24t=24(3.7)
=88.89 meters
Therefore since they are travelling towards each other and their distance apart is 200 meters, after 3.7 seconds they will meet because dog travelled 111.11 meters and cat travelled 88.89 meters and they covered already 200 meters as the sum of 111.11+ 88.89
=200 meters
