Answer:

Firstly, rewrite the equation:

⅓ (18 + 27) = 81

Substitute x for the given number of it's supposed equivalent.

In this case x = 12.

⅓ (18(12) + 27) = 81

Solve using PEMDAS and simplify what is in the parenthesis first. Then, multiply.

(18 x 12) + 27 = 243

Now, solving using PEMDAS, multiply the total of what you got that was originally in the parenthesis by ⅓ .

⅓ (243) = 81

When you multiple these number they are equivalent to 81.

81 = 81

Since the equation given, when substituted x for 12, is equivalent to 81, this proves that substituting x for 12 makes this equation true.

A tortoise and a hare are competing in a race around a 1600-meter track. The arrogant hare decides to let the tortoise have a 95
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

A. t=4n+950

B. h=9.5n

C. d=9.5n-(4n+950)

D. The tortoise will finish first.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the first two equations, we put the rate at which they are traveling in front of the n, and then add where they start. Since the tortoise gets a 950 meter head start, we add 950. The hare is starting at the start line so we don't need to add anything.

For answer c, we need to subtract the two equations from each other to figure out when they would pass each other. d=(equation h)-(equation t).

For the final answer, all you need to do is plug the first two equations into a graph, and then find where each line is at the point of y 1,600. (To make the graphs I replaced the n with x and the t and h with y.) Using this, we are able to see who got there first, which was the tortoise.
