Eric traveled to two cities on a single highway. The total distance one way was 200 miles. The distance from his original locati
drek231 [11]
<span>Equation (1) x + y = 200

Eauation (2) x = y - 40

x represents the distance from the original location to the firstt city

y represents the distance from the first city to the second city.

Solution:

(1) x + y = 200

(2) x - y = - 40
----------------------

2x = 200 - 40

2x = 160

x = 160 / 2

x = 80

x + y = 200 => y = 200 - x = 200 - 80 = 120

Therefore the solution (x,y) is (80,120)

Answer: the pair of coordinates that represents the solution (in miles) to this system of equations is (80, 120) </span>

At 12 am, train A sets off due west at a fixed speed of s mph. Train B sets off due east from the same station 2 hours later tra
alexgriva [62]

Answer: 20.833mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the motion Formula,

speed = distance/time.

This means:

distance = speed * time.

To find the value of "s" in the question, we have to calculate the distance both trains travelled in terms of "s" and sum it to give us 300miles.

For train A,

Speed = S miles per hour

time taken to reach current position= 7hours.

Hence, the distance travelled by train A

Distance A = 7s.

For train B,

Speed= (S + 10)miles per hour.

time taken to reach current position= 5hours (since train B left two hours after the departure of train A)

Distance = speed * time

Distance B = (S + 10) * 5

Distance B = 5s + 50.

Hence, adding both distance to sum up to 300miles, it becomes:

300 = 7s + 5s + 50

300-50 = 12s

250 = 12s

s = 20.833mph.

you purchase 723 shares of Nike at $47.75 per share and one year later you are ready to sell your 723 shares for the current mar
Anettt [7]
The answer to this question is "you gained profit". The amount of money you gain from selling the stocks now is higher compared to the amount you spent a year ago. The amount you gain from the shares is ($62.25) x 723 = $45006.75. The amount you spent last year is ($47.75) x 723 = $34523.25. The difference between the values is $10483.47. Thus, you gained $10483.47.

What is the value of x in the equation 32(4x – 1) – 3x = 54 – (x + 2)?
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

32(4x – 1) – 3x = 54 –(x + 2)

⇒ 32×4x-32-3x= 54-x-2   (using the distributive property)

⇒ 128x-32-3x=54-x-2

Taking terms on x on one side and constant term on other, we get

128x-3x+x= 54-2+32

⇒ 126x= 84

⇒ x= 84/126

⇒ x= 2/3

ik this might not make sense but hope this helps

The figures below are similar the label size are corresponding. What is the perimeter of the larger pentagon?
Sonja [21]

The perimeter of the larger Pentagon is 35in. You do 7 times the number of sides (7×5), because all the sides are congruent, which should equal 35.
