X=7
(15x+3)=108
x=7
if you plug 7 in for x
(15(7)+3) it equals 108
Answer:
3 1/4 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
22 3/4 ÷ 7
21÷7=3
1 3/4 = 7/4
7/4= 1/4+1/4+1/4+1/4+1/4+1/4+1/4
3 1/4 inches
Let the slower runners speed be X kilometers per hour.
Then the faster runners speed would be X+2 kilometers per hour.
The formula for distance is Speed times time.
The distance is given as 30 kilometers and time is given as 3 hours.
Since there are two runners you need to add the both of them together.
The equation becomes 30 = 3x + 3(x+2)
Now solve for x:
30 = 3x + 3(x+2)
Simplify:
30 = 3x + 3x +6
30 = 6x + 6
Subtract 6 from each side:
24 = 6x
Divide both sides by 6:
x = 24/6
x = 4
The slower runner ran at 4 kilometers per hour.
The faster runner ran at 4+2 = 6 kilometers per hour.
One way to write a ratio is 5:8 or 5 to 8 and <u>5</u>

Answer:
x ≠ 4 or -2
Step-by-step explanation:
the denominator cannot be zero, so factor the bottom equation to get the zeros and those are the domain restrictions.
3x^2 - 6x - 24 ≠ 0
3(x^2 - 2x - 8) ≠ 0 (factor out a 3)
3(x - 4)(x + 2) ≠ 0 (factor equation)
x ≠ 4, x ≠ -2 (use zero product property to find zeros)
