Firstly you multiply 5 with everything in the brackets on the left side of = . and than you put t on the left side and change sign (if it was + then its going to be -) and numbers on right side and do the same with signs. then just calculate the rest
5(5t +1) = 25t - 7
25t + 5 = 25t - 7
25t - 25t = -7 + 5
0=-2
the statement is false
I think the answer is A,B, and D.
Where these the answers?
Answer:
the rate of the first cyclist: 28km/h
the rate of the 2nd cyclist 28+4= 32km/h
Step-by-step explanation:
x= the rate of the first cyclist
x+4= the rate of the 2nd cyclist
after 4 hours: + the first cyclist travels 4x (km)
+ the 2nd cyclist travels 4(x+4) (km)
because the two cyclists are 240 km apart after 4 hours
=> 4x + 4(x+4) = 240 => x= 28
