Answer: 3 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 1/2 mph for 1/2 an hour as they said, meaning that they would've walked for 3 miles kn an hour.
2. 4 and 1/2 miles.
3 + 1 2/4. = 4 1/2
3. 1 3/4 hours.
3 + 2.25 = 5.25
3 x .75 = 2.25
3 miles per hour.
Answer: 16 double rooms and 10 single rooms were rented.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of double rooms that were rented.
Let y represent the number of single rooms that were rented.
The total number of rooms rented in a day is 26. It means that
x + y = 26
A motel rents double rooms at $34 per day and single rooms at $26 per day. If all the rooms that were rented for one day cost a total of $804, it means that
34x + 26y = 804 - - - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 26 - y into equation 1, it becomes
34(26 - y) + 26y = 804
884 - 34y + 26y = 804
- 34y + 26y = 804 - 884
- 8y = - 80
y = - 80/ - 8 = 10
x = 26 - y = 26 - 10
x = 16
Use substitution.
2p + 3(2p) = 680
2p + 6p = 680
8p = 680
p = 85
Plug in.
x = 2p
x = 2(85)
x = 170
p = 85
Answer: x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
-4(-6x + 3) = 12
Reorder the terms:
-4(3 + -6x) = 12
(3 * -4 + -6x * -4) = 12
(-12 + 24x) = 12
Solving
-12 + 24x = 12
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '12' to each side of the equation.
-12 + 12 + 24x = 12 + 12
Combine like terms: -12 + 12 = 0
0 + 24x = 12 + 12
24x = 12 + 12
Combine like terms: 12 + 12 = 24
24x = 24
Divide each side by '24'.
x = 1
Simplifying
x = 1
