The distance is 1410 miles.
The triangle above shows how speed, distance and time are related. D = s x t
S= d/t
T=d/s
He bought 3 cucumbers because 3*5=15, 15-6=9, 9*.7=6.3, .3*3=.9, .9+6.3=7.2
Part A
The expression "ma" is the same as "m*a" (m times a). To isolate 'a', we divide both sides by m. Division is the inverse operation of multiplication. Think of it as undoing multiplication
F = ma
F = m*a
F/m = m*a/m
F/m = a
a = F/m
Answer: a = F/m
Note: the slash "/" without quotes means "divide"
===========================================
Part B
Use the result from part A. We will plug F = -24 and m = 10 into that equation
a = F/m
a = -24/10
a = -2.4
Answer: -2.4
===========================================
Part C
We will use the equation F = m*a
F = m*a
24 = m*12 ... plug in F = 24 and a = 12
24/12 = m*12/12
2 = m
m = 2
Answer: 2
The answer is: [C]: " ⁷/₆ " .

(5/3) - (1/2) = ? ;
____________________________________
The LCD (lowest common denominator) of "2 and 3" is "6" ;
So we need to rewrite EACH fraction in the problem as a fraction with "6" in the denominator ;
____________________________
(5/3) = (?/6) ? ; (6÷3=2) ; (5/3) = (5*2)/(3*2) = 10/6 ;
____________________________
(1/2) = (?/6) ? ; (6÷2=3) ; (1/2) = (1*3)/(2*3) = 3/6 ;
____________________________
Rewrite the problem: " (5/3) - (1/2) " ; as:
____________________________
10/6 - 3/6 ;
____________________________________________
10/6 - 3/6 = (10 - 3) / 6 = (7/6) = 1 ⅙ .
____________________________________________
The answer is: " ⁷/₆ " ; or, write as: " 1 ⅙ " ; which corresponds to:

Answer:
9-3x=0
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 3x to both sides
9=3x
divide both sides by 3
3=x
x=3
