Answer:

The answer to your question is: three hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

data

Jogger 1 = 6 mi/h

Jogger 2 = 6.5 miles/h , starts 15 min (0.25 h) after the first Jogger

Time when the second jogger catch the first jogger = ?

Process

Advantage of the first jogger    d = vt = 6(0.25) = 1.5 mi

Distance where they meet       1.5 + 6t = 6.5t

Find the t value                          6.5t - 6t = 1.5

                                                   0.5 t = 1.5

                                                    t = 1.5 / 0.5

                                                    t = 3 hours

Did I do the problem -2x+10=-2(x+5) ? If not plz explain and answerthxx
Citrus2011 [14]
So when you opened up the parenthesis on the right side of the question, you added -2 to 5 instead of multiplying. Since there is no addition sign in between -2 and the parenthesis, it should be multiplication, so -2x  + -10.

So now the answer would be 10 = -10.

Which leads me to believe that this question wasn't written correctly because 10 does not equal -10 for sure.

Answer:

60 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

First find angle I by using the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees

59+61+I = 180

120 + I = 180

I = 180-120

I =60

<I = <x since they are corresponding angles

<x = 60 degrees
