Answer:
x = 100
Step-by-step explanation:
Alex's house (point F) lies on the same street as her school (point H). Alex's bus stop (point G) lies between her house and her school. Given FG=2x meters, GH=1,000 meters and FH=1,200 meters. What is the value of x in meters?
FG=2x meters, GH=1,000 meters and FH=1,200 meters.
FH = FG + GH
1200 = 2x + 1000
1200 - 1000 = 2x
200.= 2x
x.= 200/2
x = 100
They would cost the same amount by day 2. day 1 for car a is $45.50. day 1 for car b is $40. day 2 for car a is $60. day 2 for car b is also $60.
1/4x + 5 = =4
subtract 5 to both sides
1/4x = 4 - 5
1/4x = -1
multiply 4 to both sides
x = -1 x 4
x = -4
