1) Divide both sides by 2
2x+12^2/3 =16
2) Solve the exponent
2x+12^2/3 =16
(2x+12^2/) ^3/2 =16^3/2 ( raise both sides to power)
2x+12 = 64
3) Subtract 12 from both sides
2x + 12 - 12 = 64-12
2x = 52
4) divide both sides by 2
2x/2 = 52/2
x = 26
Final answer : x = 26
<u>Answer</u>
Incorrect
<u>Explanation</u>
Unpack the problem:
Let the distance round the track to be X.
Speed is the ratio of distance to time.
Robert run a distance of (1/2)x
Elaine run a distance of (3/4)x
Make a plan:
Finding the speed of each.
Compare their speeds to determine who ran faster than who.
Solution:
Robert's speed =(1/2)x/(5/6)
=1/2×6/5x
= (3/5)x
= 0.6x
Elaine's speed = (3/4)x/(9/10)
= (3/4)×(10/9)x
= (5/6)x
= 0.83333x
<em>Elaine ran faster than Robert. </em>
<u>Look back and explain:</u>
0.83333x > 0.6x
Elaine's speed is higher than Robert's speed.
This shows that Elaine ran faster than Robert.
Answer:
Doreen traveled 35 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
5 to the power of 2 is 25
2 multiplied by 5 is 10
then you add the 2 numbers and you get 35

Step-by-step explanation:
??What is parallel to a point?
If the cut is parallel to the cut-off point, the cross-section is a rectangle.
Answer:
y = -2x -4
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line is y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line, and b is the y-intercept. We are told that the slope of the line is -2, so we can start with
y = mx + b
y = -2x + b
We can figure out the value of b by plugging in the coordinates of the point given (-2, 0)
0 = -2(-2) + b
0 = 4 + b
Subtract 4 from both sides of the equation
-4 = b
Then plug that value of b back into the equation above:
y = -2x + (-4) or y = -2x -4
