Answer:

The answer to your question is the theater is 6.7 mi from home

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

speed 1 = 2 mi/h

time in theater = 2h 15 min

speed 2 = 40 mi/h

time = 3.5 h

Process

1.- Write the formula to calculate speed

             speed = distance / time

-Solve for time

             time = speed x time

2.- Write and equation to solve this problem

      total time = time from home to theater + time from theater to home

3.- Substitution

      3.5 = d/2 + d/40

4.- Solve for d

      3.5 = (20d + d) / 40

      140 = 21d

      d = 140 / 21

      d = 6.7 mi

What is the value of x in the equation 5(3x + 4) = 23?
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

x = 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

5(3x + 4) = 23

Distribute

15x+20 = 23

Subtract 20 from each side

15x+20-20 = 23-20

15x = 3

Divide by 15

15x/15 = 3/15

x = 1/5

Twice the sum of three and a number is 30. Find the number
DedPeter [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • 2(x +3) = 30
  • 12

Step-by-step explanation:

When x represents the number, "the sum of 3 and a number" is (x+3). Twice that sum is 2(x+3). "Is 30" means this expression is equal to 30:

  2(x +3) = 30 . . . . an equation for the given conditions

__

We can solve this equation by dividing by 2:

  x + 3 = 15

  x = 12 . . . . . . subtract 3

The number is 12.
