Answer:

x = 816 kilometers per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Distance traveled by Kirk = 450km

Distance traveled by Thor = 408 km

Let the average driving speed of Thor be x.

Translating the word problem into an algebraic equation;

k = x + 6

We know that the time taken to cover a distance by an object with speed is given by the formula;

Time = distance/speed

Substituting into the equation, we have;

408/x = 405/x + 6

Cross-multiplying, we have;

408*(x + 6) = 405*x

408x + 2448 = 405x

408x - 405x = 2448

3x = 2448

x = 2448/3

x = 816 kilometers per hour.

Lenny bought x shares of stock for Sy per share last month. He paid
gulaghasi [49]

Lenny's net proceeds algebraically are found as;\rm |xy + 20 -  \frac{98}{100} |

<h3>What is the equation?</h3>

A mathematical statement consisting of an equal symbol between two algebraic expressions with the same value is known as an equation.

Let the bought share will be $ x, and $y is the price per share

Paid fees to the broker = $ 20

The total amount spent = $(xy+20)

The price at which each share sells = $ A

Broker commission = 2 %

The total amount obtained after selling the shares;

⇒ ax - 2% of ax

⇒ 98 % of ax

Hence, Lenny's net proceeds algebraically are found as;\rm |xy + 20 -  \frac{98}{100} |

Question on the image​
kodGreya [7K]

Let x,y be the legs of the triangle, with x[tex]\mathrm{area}_{\rm square} = y^2

\mathrm{area}_{\rm triangle} = \dfrac12 xy

The square has 3 times the area of the triangle, so

y^2 = \dfrac32 xy

Meanwhile, in the triangle we have

\tan(\theta) = \dfrac xy

Now,

y^2 = \dfrac32 xy \implies \dfrac23 = \dfrac xy \implies \boxed{\tan(\theta) = \dfrac23}
