Answer:

Terrell drove 200 miles one way

Step-by-step explanation:

Since his trip concluded at 9 hours, let's say that x = time traveled at 40 mph

and 9 - x = time traveled at 50 mph

D = (rate) x (time)

40x = 50(9 - x) -----Use Distributive property on the right side of the equation

40x = 450 - 50x -----Add 50x on both sides

90x = 450 ------Divide by 90 on both sides

We end up with x = 5 which is the value we need to determine the distance of our first trip, calculated by

D = 40x, or 40(5) = 200 mi

Vesna [10]

The answer is X = 11 - 3. This is because to calculate the original value of how many books Isabella had, you have to take away the amount purchased from the overall total amount. Therefore, the equation is x = 11-3

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

let t = number of three-point shots

let f = number of free throw shots

Step-by-step explanation:

t + f = 9 (he made a total of 9 shots altogether)

3t + 1f = 23 (number of shots multiplied by their point value)

substitution method: t = 9 - f

3(9 - f) + f = 23

27 - 3f + f = 23

-2f = -4

f = 2

find 't': t + 2 = 9

t = 7

Draw and shade figures that represent 50%, 25%, and 150%. Label each figure and described it in words. How do I answer this ques

muminat

See photo for drawing.
Words:
Suppose a square is 100%,
50%: the square is divided into two equal parts, and one of them is shaded, therefore it is 50%.
25%: the square is divided into 4 equal parts, and one of them is shaded, therefore it is 25%.
150%: there are two squares, each divided into 2 equal parts, and 3 of them is shadowed, therefore it is 150%.
