Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
1. x + 40 = 3x - 20
2. 40 = 2x - 20
3. 60 = 2x
4. 30 = x
1) 2x+3 = 5
-3 -3
2x =2
x=1
2) -x + 8 = 5
-8 -8
-x = -3
X=3
Answer:
16 is the range
Step-by-step explanation:
First, arrange the numbers from least to greatest.
21, 25, 25, 26, 28, 37
Then, subtract 21 (smallest number) from the 37 (biggest number).
37 - 21 = 16
So, the range is 16
Have a wonderful day!
Let p and m represent the numbers of miles in the plains and mountains, respectively.
.. p + m = 300 . . . . . . . the whole trip was 300 miles
time = distance/speed, so the trip time can be written as
.. p/90 + m/37.5 = 3 48/60
.. 5p + 12m = 1710 . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 450 to put in standard form
You can solve these two equations by any of several means. The variable p can be eliminated by subtracting 5 times the first from the second.
.. (5p +12m) -5(p +m) = 1710 -5*300
.. 7m = 210
.. m = 30
30 miles of the trip was through the mountains.
