Answer:

-10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number

10 less than a number is the same number doubled

x-10 = 2x

Subtract x from each side

x-10-x = 2x-x

-10 = x

The number is -10

A rock is thrown from the top of a tall building.The distance in feet between the rock and the ground t seconds after thrown is
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

0.448 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

d = -16t² -4t + 412

find t when d = 407

substituting d = 407 into the equation:

407 = -16t² -4t + 412 (subtract 407 from both sides)

-16t² -4t + 412 - 407 = 0

-16t² -4t + 5 = 0 (multiply both sides by -1)

16t² + 4t - 5 = 0  

solving using your method of choice (i.e completing the square or using the quadratic equation), you will end up with

t = (-1/8) (1 + √21)= -0.70 seconds (not possible because time cannot be negative)

or

t = (-1/8) (1 -√21) = 0.448 seconds (answer)

Help???<br> Its a two step inequality problem. I dunno what X equals too.
Verizon [17]

Answer:

x \geq -1

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x + 2 \geq -6x

Add 6x to both sides:

-4x + 2 + 6x \geq -6x + 6x

2x + 2 \geq 0

Subtract 2 from both sides:

2x + 2 - 2 \geq 0 - 2

2x \geq -2

Divide both side by 2:

\frac{2x}{2} \geq \frac{-2}{2}

x \geq -1

A train travels 68 kilometers in 2 hours, and then 64 kilometers in 3 hours. What is its average speed
skad [1K]
Average speed is the distance traveled by an object in total and divided by the amount of time an object covers the distance. The formula is -
Average speed = total distance traveled / total time taken
                         = 68km+64km / 2 hrs.+3hrs.
                         = 132km / 5hrs.
                         = 26.4km/hr.
Therefore, the train's average speed is 26.4km/hr.

timofeeve [1]

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangle ADE:

sum of all angles is 180.

3x-10+58+42=180

3x+90=180

3x=180-90

3x=90

x=90/3

x=30

As line DA and CB are parallel:

angle D=angle C

angle y=58

In angle BCE, sum of angles is 180.

z+58+42=180

z+100=180

z=180-100

z=80
