250 - 5(x) = 50
250 (-250) - 5x = 50 (-250)
-5x = -200
-5x/-5 = -200/-5
x = 40
hope this helps

Answer:
90 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Against wind DATA:
distance = 600 miles ; time = 5 hrs. ; rate = 600/5 = 120 mph
With wind DATA:
distance = 600 miles ; time = 2 hrs ; rate = 600/2 = 300 mph
Equations:
p + w = 300
p - w = 120
2p = 420
p = 210 mph (speed of the plane in still air)
Since p+w = 300, w = 300-210 = 90 mph (speed of the wind)
Answer:
x=-10
Step-by-step explanation:
(3x+2)/4=-7
3x+2=4×-7
3x=-28-2
3x=-30
x=-10
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
y-3=5(x-2) (rearrange this to be in slope- intercept from) (add 3 to both sides)
y = 5(x-2) + 3 (distribute parentheses)
y = x(5) - 2(5) + 3
y = 5x -10 + 3
y = 5x - 7
recall that for a line with gradient m, the gradient of the perpendicular line will be - (1/m)
hence in our case, our gradient of the original line is 5, hence the gradient of the perpendicular line is -1/5
From the choices, the only one that is consistent with this is C
i.e choice C:
5y + x = 25
5y = -x + 25
y = -(1/5) x + 5 ===> gradient of -1/5
