Answer: Tiffany 15mph, Maggie 20mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up the equation 4((x+5) + x) = 140. x+5 represents how many miles Maggie covered in one hour. x represents how much Tiffany traveled in one hour. 140 is the number of miles in total. 4 is the number of hours in total.
Simplify the equation.
(x+5) + x = 35 Divide both sides by 4
2x+5 = 35 Combine like terms
2x = 30 Subtract 5 from both sides
x = 15 Divide both sides by 2
Tiffany traveled 15mph, while Maggie traveled 15+5=20mph.
2/3 of 225
= 2/3 x 225
= 150
Answer:
-4y-2
Step-by-step explanation:
-4(y+1)+2
-4 times y is -4y
-4 times 1 is -4
-4y-4 plus 2
is 4y-2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: see attachment below
7+3t -t
------- = ----- is the relevant equation here. We don't ask, "What is 7+3t over
4 8 -t over 8," but rather "Solve the following equation for t."
Cross multiplying, 56 + 24t = -4t
-56
Then: 28t = 56, and t = ------ = -2 (answer)
28
The solution to "<span>What is 7+3t over 4 = -t over 8" is t = -2.</span>
