It will take 3 hours 6 minutes 40 seconds for the cars to be 420 miles apart.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; The cars are traveling in the opposite direction at different speeds. One is going north at a speed of 75 mph while the other is going 60 mph. So for every hour, the cars are traveling they increase the distance between in between themselves by 75 miles + 60 miles = 135 miles.
Step 2; Assume that in x hours the distance between them is 420 miles. To calculate x we divide the distance to be traveled by the distance being traveled every hour.
x = distance to be covered / distance being traveled every hour
= 420 / 135 = 3.11 hours
We multiply the 0.11 hours with 60 to convert it into minutes. 0.11 × 60 = 6.66 minutes and if we do the same for seconds, 0.66 minutes × 60 = 40 seconds.
Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
8 + x = 4x +2
Subtract 4x from both sides:
8 + x - 4x = 4x + 2 - 4x
Group like terms:
x - 4x + 8 = 4x + 2 -4x
Simplify the arithmetic:
-3x + 8 = 4x + 2 -4x
Group like terms:
-3 + 8 = 4x - 4x + 2
Simplify the arithmetic:
-3x + 8 = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
12 + 16 ÷ 4 × 5 - 8
12 + 4 × 5 - 8
12 + 20 - 8
32 - 8
24
