Given that quadrilateral QRST is a square.
Each angle of a square is of 90 degrees.
Angle <RQT is also an angle of 90 degrees.
We also given angle RQT = 3x - 6.
So, we can setup an equation as 3x-6 =90.
Now, we need to solve the equation for x.
6 is being subtracted from left side.
We always apply reverse operation. Reverse operation of subtraction is addition.
So, adding 6 on both sides of the equation, we get
3x-6+6 =90+6.
3x = 96.
3 is being multipied with x, in order to remove that 3, we need to apply reverse operation of multiplication.
So, dividing both sides by 3.
x=32 (final answer).
Answer: Time taken by him in going = 8 hours
Time taken by him in returning = 9 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total distance from home to New York is x miles,
Also, he drove his car from his home to New York at the rate of 45 mph,
⇒
And, returned over the same road at the rate of 40 mph.
⇒
According to the question,
Time taken by him in returning - Time taken by him in going = 30 minutes = 1/2 hours, ( 1 hours = 60 minutes )
⇒
⇒
⇒
⇒
⇒
Hence, the total distance from home to New York = x miles = 360 miles
