Answer:

120/2 = x/5....120 miles to 2 hrs = x miles to 5 hrs

cross multiply

(2)(x) = (120)(5)

2x = 600

x = 600/2

x = 300....the motorcyclist would travel 300 miles in 5 hrs

or u could do it this way..

120/2 = 60 miles per hr

60 * 5 = 300 miles

The dimensions of a rectangle are 2x – 5 and 3x + 3. Which expression
Ulleksa [173]

Answer: 2x - 5

Step-by-step explanation: 2x - 5 does not have anything in common, so therefore it can not be simplified. Then 3x - 3 can be divided by 3 because they have that in common. It can’t be 3x - 3 because it still contains one step left to be in its most simplified form.
