Answer:
h = yX -yr
Step-by-step explanation:
X=r-h/y
X - r = h/y
y*(X-r) = h
h = yX -yr
The second one because it allows for all the points to be presented
Let wind speed = x mph
when she rode 2 miles against the wind we have:-
speed = distance / time so
20 - x = 2 / t -------(1) where t is the time she took.
when riding with the wind we have
20 + x = 3 / t--------(2) adding equations (1) and (2):-
40 = 2/t + 3/t
40 = 5/t
t = 5/40 = 1/8 hr
x = 20 - 2 / 1/8 = 20 - 16 = 4
Wind speed was 4 mph Answer
Answer:
First number=22
Second number=28
Step-by-step explanation:
Since you don't know either of the numbers we can call the first number x. The second number is the first number plus 6 or x+6. The sum is 22 more than the larger number so x+6+22 or x+28. Using this we can create the equation x+x+6=x+28. In order to isolate x we would subract x from both sides ending up with x+6=28. Then subract 6 from both sides to get x=22. This means the first number equals 22. Then to solve for the second number you plug 22 in for x to get the equation 22+6= the second number, so the second number is equal to 28. Look below for just the equation.
x+x+6=x+6+22
2x+6=x+28
-x -x
x+6=28
-6. -6
x=22
22+6
=28
22+28= 28+22
50=50
