Keenan is training for a triathlon and needs to swim a certain distance for today's workout. If he swims at the rec center pool,

he will complete a 118-yard warmup and then swim laps in a lane that is 41 yards long. If Keenan swims at the indoor pool at his gym, he will complete a 154-yard warmup, plus a main set that consists of 32 yards per lap. If Keenan swims the correct number of laps, he can complete the same distance in either pool. How many laps will that take? How long will Keenan's workout be in total?

Answer:

4 laps
282 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

For n laps, the length Keenan swims in the rec center pool is ...

118 + 41n

and the length he swims in the gym pool is ...

154 +32n

These are equal length for equal numbers of laps, so we have ...

118 + 41n = 154 + 32n

9n = 36 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 32n+118

n = 4 . . . . . . . . divide by 9

Then the length of Keenan's workout is ...

118 +41(4) = 282 . . . . yards

It will take 4 laps to make the workout total 282 yards in each pool.

Answer:

1) $x < 0$

2) $x > 0$

3) $x < 10$

4) $x < -\frac{31}{55}$

5) $x \geq 0$

6) $x \geq -1$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) $-3 > 2x -3$

$2x- 3 < -3$

$2x - 3 + 3 < -3 +3$

$2x < 0$

$\frac{2x}{2} < \frac{0}{2}$

$x < 0$

2) $5 > -x + 5$

$-x + 5 < 5$

$- x + 5 -5 < 5 - 5$

$-x < 0$

$\frac{-x}{-1} < \frac{0}{-1}$

$x > 0$

3) $\frac{x}{5} -2 < 0$

$5 \times (\frac{x}{5} - 2 ) \times 5 < 0$

$x - 10 < 0$

$x -10 + 10 < 0 +10$

$x < 10$

4) $-5x + 11 > 31$

$-5x \cdot 11 < 31$

$-55x < 31$

$\frac{-55x}{-55} > \frac{31}{-55}$

$x < -\frac{31}{55}$

5) $\frac{1}{2}x - 4 \geq -4$

$\frac{1}{2}x -4 +4 \geq -4 +4$

$\frac{1}{2}x \geq 0$

$\frac{\frac{1}{2}x }{\frac{1}{2} } \geq \frac{0}{\frac{1}{2} }$

$x \geq 0$

6) $-4x + 2 \leq 6$

$-4x +2 - 2 \leq 6 -2$

$-4x < 4$

$\frac{-4x}{-4} \leq \frac{4}{-4}$

$x \geq -1$

Find the value of each variable. Write an<br> equation then solve showing ALL the work<br> A2x+10°

AveGali [126]

Answer:

x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

The three straight lines in the sides of the triangle means that ALL 3 SIDES ARE EQUAL.

This is an equilateral triangle. So all 3 angles are equal.

We know sum of 3 angles in a triangle is 180. Since 3 of the angles are equal, each angle is:

180/3 = 60

The top angle is given as "2x + 10", thus we can say "2x + 10" is equal to 60 degrees. Now we equate and solve for x:

$2x+10=60\\2x=60-10\\2x=50\\x=\frac{50}{2}\\x=25$

The value of x is 25

Identify the congruent triangles in the figure.

Komok [63]

Answer:

The answer would be HFG = KIJ (A)

If we know that the opposite and the adjacent side of the triangle are congruent, then the hypotenuse is congruent too. Therefor, A is correct as we know the opposite side and the adjacent side are congruent.
