In the question, they give you the formula for speed...
speed = distance / time
They also give you the distance and the time, so all we have to do is stick them into the equation...
speed = 3 2/3 Km / 1/3 hour
speed = 3 2/3 / 1/3
To divide the fractions, first we need to convert 3 2/3 into an improper fraction
3 2/3 = 11/3
now we multiply 11/3 x the reciprocal of the divisor 1/3. The reciprocal just means flip the numerator and denominator
speed = 11/3 x 3/1
speed = 33/3
speed = 11 Km/hour
Answer:
x = 26
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(x - 2) =
(x + 4) + 2
Multiply through by 15 to clear the fractions
5(x - 2) =3(x + 4) + 30 ← distribute and simplify both sides
5x - 10 = 3x + 12 + 30, that is
5x - 10 = 3x + 42 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
2x - 10 = 42 ( add 10 to both sides )
2x = 52 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 26
Answer:
x = approx. 1.24 or -7.24
Step-by-step explanation:
It's hard to factor directly so we should use the quadratic formula or complete the square. I'm going to go with completing the square.
x²+6x-9=0
x²+6x=9
x²+6x is the same as x²+2·3·x, in order to make this into the algebraic identity (A+B)²=A²+2AB+B², we must add B², or in this case 3² to both sides. (A is x, B is 3)
x²+6x+9=18
(x+3)²= 18
x+3= ±√18
x= ±4.24 -3 (approximately 4.24)
First solution for x = 4.24-3 = 1.24
Second solution for x = -4.24-3 = -7.24
