Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
3+x=2x
Subtract x from each side to get the variable on one side
3+x-x=2x-x
3 = x

Step-by-step explanation:
Gotta love these motion problems!!! This one is especially tricky! At noon, ship A is 180 km west of ship B. If ship A is traveling east, it is closing its distance to ship B (if ship B didn't move). But ship B is moving north at the same time. We need to find the distance each can travel in 4 hours using the d = rt formula. For ship A. We know it's moving at 35 km/h, so in 4 hours it can move d = 35(4) which is 140 km. Remember that is closing the distance to ship B. So it is 180 - 140 directly south of ship B. This problem will turn out to be a right triangle problem of sorts. The distance of 40 km serves as the base of this right triangle.
With ship B moving north at 25 km/hr, it can travel d = 25(4) which is 100 km. This serves as the height of the triangle. We are asked to find the rate at which the distance is changing 4 hours from their starting points. We know how far each can travel in those 4 hours, so in order to find the rate of change (which is the same thing as the slope!), we take the height and divide it by the base because that is the same thing as taking the rise over the run. 100/40 is 10/4 which is a rate of change of 2.5 km/hr
Answer:
(D) "...because he will not have to pay any interest on his purchases during the introductory APR period."
Step-by-step explanation:
There may be many reasons for John to choose one over the other depending on his future and planned usage patterns. However, answer the (D) is the only correct one in terms of stating a reason that is actually supported by the information in the question. Specifically, there is 0% APR for card B.
What's wrong with the other choices:
Choice A: incorrect statement re APR after intro period (is not 1%); B: incorrect statement re cash advance (is not 0%); C: statement is not supported by anything in the information given (it is an assumption, and is unlikely).
Answer:
The net forces exerted on the horse and cart are not the same, so they are not balanced forces.
Step-by-step explanation:
Please see the Newton's 2nd Law which states that an object accelerates if there is a net or unbalanced force on it. In this scenario there is just one force exerted on the wagon i.e: the force that the horse exerts on it. The wagon accelerates because the horse pulls on it. And the amount of acceleration equals the net force on the wagon divided by its mass.
As there are two forces the push and pull the horse; the wagon pulls the horse backwards, and the ground pushes the horse forward. The net force is determined by the relative sizes of these two forces.
If the ground pushes harder on the horse than the wagon pulls, there is a net force in the forward direction, and the horse accelerates forward, and if the wagon pulls harder on the horse than the ground pushes, there is a net force in the backward direction, and the horse accelerates backward.
If the force that the wagon exerts on the horse is the same size as the force that the ground exerts, the net force on the horse is zero, and the horse does not accelerate.
Answer:
If we consider three 20 sided dice, the chance of rolling 15 on each of them is: P = (1/20)³ = 0.000125 (or P = 1.25·10⁻⁴ in scientific notation).
