Step-by-step explanation:
The area A of the tire in contact is 7"×5" = 35 sq inches and we know that each tire has a pressure of 30 psi so the weight of the car in tons is
Combine like terms
6x + 9 - 16x
6x - 16x = -10x
-10x + 9 = -21
-9 -9
-10x = -30
-10x/-10 = -30/-10
x = 3
Answer: x = 3
Answer: 1 7/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Use 26/8 - 11/8 to get 15/8 then convert to mixed number
I believe that X would be -2.47619.
First you distribute the -1 in front of the parenthesis. Then distribute the 8 outside of the bracts. And finally just solve for X by combing like terms.
