Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

-3*(x-2)-(2*x-3)-(5-(4*x-2))=0

((0 - 3 • (x - 2)) - (2x - 3)) - (7 - 4x) = 0

2 - x = 0

-x+2 = 0

Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation :

-x = -2

Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) : x = 2

Answer:

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Do Distributive property with both sides: -3x+6-2x+3=5-4x+2

Combine like terms: -5x+9=7-4x

Add 4x to -5x: 1x+9=7

Subtract 9 from 7: 1x=-2

divide by 1x: -2

Two trains travel a 160 km track each day. The express travels 10 km h^-1 faster and take 30 minutes less time than the normal t

aniked [119]

Let s = the speed of the slower train in km/hrs+10 = the speed of the faster train in km/hrLet t = time in hrs for the slower train to go 160 kmt-5 = time in hrs for faster train to go 160 km---------------Slower train:(1)
160=s.t

Faster train:(2) 160=(s+10) .(t-.5)From (1)(1) t=160/s
use the relations given in following screenshot and then use quadratic equation.
