X^2 and 5x both have x in common to factor out. To add or subtract them, 5x^2 is the least common denominator .
Answer:
X = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
-6x + 18 = 7 - (4x + 9)
first we simplify the parentheses.
distribute the invisible number one created by the negative sign in front of the parentheses to get -6x + 18 = 7 - 4x - 9
then simplify further by subtracting 9 from the right side, leaving you with
-6x + 18 = -2 - 4x
next, add 2 to both sides to isolate the variable.
-6x + 20 = -4x
then, to isolate the variable further add 6x to both sides.
20 = -4x
divide both sides by -4 to isolate the variable
-5 = x
so, x = -5
So that is equal to 180 miles per 2 hours which is 90 miles per hour if each hour has the same m/hr rate.
You can set up a proportion:
let x = number of miles per hour

cross multiply and you get
2x=180
divide both sides by 2 and you get
x=90
so you get the same answer both ways,
90 miles per hour
Answer:
1cm:100cm
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to convert the ratio into the same unit (I chose cm). If there are 100cm in a metre, there will be 300cm in 3m.
That leaves you with the ratio 3cm:300cm. To simplify, divide both sides by three leaving you with 1cm:100cm
