Answer:
x = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x + 10 +4x=70
-10 -10
-2x + 4x = 60
2x = 60
/2 /2
x = 30
Answer:
n = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
given m varies directly as n then the equation relating them is
m = kn ← k is the constant of variation
to find k use the condition m = 6 when n = 5
6 = 5k ( divide both sides by 5 )
k = 
= 1.2
m = 1.2n ← equation of variation
when m = 12 , then
12 = 1.2n ( divide both sides by 1.2 )
10 = n
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation
3x + 9 + 2x = x - 2x - 3
Solution
Combine all the like terms.
3x+2x+9 = x - 2x - 3
5x + 9 = -x - 3 Add x to both sides of the equation
5x+x +9 = -x+x -3 Combine
6x + 9 = - 3 Subtract 9 from both sides of the equation
6x+9-9 = - 3-9 Combine
6x = -12 Divide both sides by 6
6x/6 = -12/6
x = - 2
Answer x = - 2
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
√x + 1 = 3
√x = 3 - 1
√x = 2
(√x)² = (2)²
x = 4
10.5 hours
let t be time then distance travelled by both is
Mr Burges ⇔ d = 50t ( distance = speed × time )
Mrs Burges ⇒ d = 70(t - 3)
At the point of overtaking both will have travelled the same distance
equating their distance and solving for t
70(t - 3) = 50t
70t - 210 = 50t ( subtract 50t from both sides )
20t - 210 = 0 ( add 210 to both sides )
20t = 210 ( divide both sides by 20 )
t = 10.5 hours
