X = 1/2 and x is also equal to 1/5
Answer: he hiked 5.6 miles up the canyon.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent his speed hiking uphill.
His speed running downhill was 2.8 mph greater than his speed hiking uphill. This means that his speed running downhill would be x + 2.8
Distance = speed × time
Kevin hiked up Lamb’s Canyon in 2 hours. This means that the distance covered by hiking uphill is 2 × x = 2x
He ran back downhill in 1 hour. This means that the distance covered by running downhill is 1 × (x + 2.8) =
x + 2.8
Since the distance uphill is the same as the distance downhill, then
2x = x + 2.8
2x - x = 2.8
x = 2.8
Therefore, the distance hiked up the canyon is
2x = 2 × 2.8 = 5.6 miles
Answer:
x = 20°
y = 70°
Step-by-step explanation:
the angle adjacent to the 40° angle must be 140° because the two angles form a straight line (which contains 180°)
in the isosceles triangle with the 'x', that means the other two angles must be equal and are (180-140) ÷ 2, which equals 20°
to find 'y', consider the larger right triangle with angles of 90° and 20°; angle y must equal 180 - (90 + 20) = 70°
Answer:
The correct options are:
A, B, and E.
Step-by-step explanation:
A mathematical sentence (or a mathematical statement) is a sentence that can be true or false.
This is the only criteria we need to check, now let's analyze each option.
A: 4 - d = 12
This can be true or false, for example, if d = 0 the sentence is false because:
4 - 0 = 12
4 = 12 is false.
and if d = -8 the sentence is true, because:
4 - (-8) = 12
4 + 8 = 12
12 = 12
is true.
B: 4 - V > 2
This sentence can be true or false, same reasoning as before, we can find values of V such that this is true or false.
C: 3 + 2
Now, here we can't say if this is true or false, so this is not a mathematical sentence.
D: 59
Same as before, this is just a number.
E: 6 + a = 13
This can be true or false, depending on the value of a, then this is a mathematical sentence.
F: 12*x
Here we can not say if this is true or false, so this is not a mathematical sentence.
The correct options are:
A, B, and E.
Heres a trick i learned look at the digit your rounding look to your right is it 5 or higher? yeas add 1 more to the one you are rounding if not then you drop the numbers after the one you are rounding so 8.54 is now just 8.5
