Answer:
Average rate of car: x+3
Walking rate: x
The equation is
10/15 = x/x+3
So
x = 6
So
Average rate of car: 9 mph
Walking rate: 6 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
26
Step-by-step explanation:
125+29=154
180-154=26
1/2r+2(3/4r-1)=1/4r+6
2r-2=1/4r+6
2r=1/4r+8
7/4r=8
7r=32
r=32/7
Answer:
1/10
13/100
4/5
12/25
3/10
63/100
3/5
51/200
2/9
5/11
To prove the last 2 recurring ones:
0.222222... = x
10x = 10 * 0.22222... = 2.222222....
Notice how the decimal part of 10x is the same as for x:
10x - x = 2.2222222... - 0.222222... = 2
10x - x = 9x = 2
x = 2/9
Same procedure for the other one but times by 100 instead:
x = 0.454545...
100x = 45.454545...
100x - x = 45.454545... - 0.454545... = 45
100x - x = 99x = 45
x = 45/99 = 5/11
