your number was 12.
let x be the number:
(x * 2) + 50 = 74
To solve for x, we need to reverse what was done to get the answer of 74.
Since 50 was added to arrive at 74, we deduct 50 from 74.
74 - 50 = 24
We then divide 24 by 2 to get the original number.
24/2 = 12.
Your number was 12.
To check:
(12 * 2) + 50 = 74
24 + 50 = 74
74 = 74
No. For fractions to be equal, both the numerators and denominators have to be proportional.
Since both denominators are 2, the denominators would have to be just 3 or just 4.
Answer: 3600 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
60 seconds in a minute
60 minutes in an hour
(60)(60) = 3600
Answer:
26.4 km/hr
Step-by-step explanation:
Sofia and Diego drive to work.
For Sofia
We convert miles to km
Sofia drives 72 miles in 1.5 hours.
1 mile = 1.6 km
72 miles = x
x = 72 × 1.6 km
x = 115.2 km
We find the speed in km/hr
Speed = Distance /Time
= 115.2km/1.5 hours
= 76.8 km/hr
For Diego
Diego drives 126 km in 2 hour 30 min.
Speed = Distance/Time
Time = 2 hour 30 min = 2.5 hours
Speed = 126km/2.5 hours
= 50.4 km/hr
The difference between their average speeds in km/h is calculated as:
76.8 km/hr - 50.4 km/hr
= 26.4 km/hr
Harley is 15 years less than seven times Marcy's age, so that means Haley + 15 = 7 * Marcy
Equation: (41 + 15) / 7 = 56 / 7 = 8
Marcy's age is 8.
Hope this helped =)
