Answer:

DF = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the 3 sides are congruent, then

EF = DE , that is

4.5m - 42 = 1.5m - 9 ( subtract 1.5m from both sides )

3m - 42 = - 9 ( add 42 to both sides )

3m = 33 ( divide both sides by 3 )

m = 11

Thus

DE = 1.5m - 9 = 1.5(11) - 9 = 16.5 - 9 = 7.5

Then

DF = 7.5

Two trains are traveling towards each other at a constant speed. The trains are currently 714 miles from each other. The speeds
shutvik [7]
55mph.

you can solve it using the equation distance=speed x time

your total distance is 714, and you have 2 trains, one traveling some speed, x, and one traveling x+8, both traveling for 7 hours. 
your equation would look like this
714 = x(7) + (x+8)(7)
and you can then solve for x, which would be 47. this is the speed of the slower train, but 47+8=55 with give you the speed of the faster train.

I’m confused on what to do next please help
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

There are 585 adults and children

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of adults be a, number of children be c and the number of seniors be a

Amount made per group;

adults; 52 * a = 52a

Children : 26 * c = 26c

Seniors = 20 * s = 20s

Adding all will give 20,490

52a + 20s + 26c = 20 490 ••••(i)

Now let us work with the ratios;

a : s = 6 : 1

a/s = 6/1

a = 6s •••••(ii)

Lastly;

a/c = 4/9

4c = 9a ••••(ii)

We want to get a + c

From the first equation , let’s substitute

52(6s) + 20s + 26c = 20,490

26c = 6.5 (4c)

but 4c = 9a; 6.5(9a)

But a = 6s

So we have; 6.5(9)(6s) = 351s

so we have;

312s + 351s + 20s = 20,490

683s = 20,490

s = 20490/683

s = 30

Recall;

a = 6s = 6 * 30 = 180

4c = 9a

4c = 9 * 180

c = (9 * 180)/4 = 405

So the total number of children and adult is a + c

405 + 180 = 585

Please help me im crying over this question
denis23 [38]

Answer:

y = 2x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y= mx+b

m= slope

b= y-intercept (point on line where x= 0.... or the point where the line hits the y-axis)

Determine slope by using slope formula or by counting boxes

By counting boxes, you can see that each point is 2 units up, 1 unit right (2/1)

the slope is 2

the point where the line is touching the y-axis is (0, -2)

m = slope = 2

b  = y-intercept = -2

y = 2x + (-2) OR y = 2x -2
