The key is Esther travelled the same distance - x - in both her morning and evening commute.
45(time she took in the morning, or p) = x
30(time she took in the evening, or q) = x
Therefore 45(p) = 30(q), or divide both sides by 5 and get 9(p) = 6(q). I know you can divide it further, but these numbers are small enough and it's not worth the time.
Since the whole trip took an hour, (p + q) = 60min, and so, p = 60-q.
Therefore 9(60-q) = 6q or 540-9q = 6q. So 540 = 15q, which makes q = 36. If q = 36, then by (p+q)=60, p (the time she took in the morning) must equal 24.
45 miles per hour, her speed in the morning, times (24/60) hours, her time, makes 18 miles travelled in the morning. If you check, 30 miles per hour times (36/60) hours also makes 18 miles in the evening.

Answer:
x=13
Step-by-step explanation:
Switch sides:
2x−9=17
Add 9 to both sides:
2x−9+9=17+9
Simplify
2x=26
Divide both sides by 2:
2x/2 =26/2
Simplify to get the result.
x=13
I can't see the question it's blurry

Step-by-step explanation:
Done. You're welcome
x = 85 degrees and
y = 45 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
The angle for a straight line is 180°. The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180°. These two statements are required to solve this problem.
The angles of x° and 95° are on a single straight line.
So
So the angle of x is 85°.
Step 2:
The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180°.
So
So the angle of y is 45°.
