Answer:
The person is 14 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Multiply 6 times 18 which is 108
2. Add all numbers together in list which is 94
3. Subtract 94 from 108 which is 14
4. To check answer add 94 plus 14 and divide by 6 and you will get the median which is 18, now you know this answer is correct.
9 x 6 = 54 is this right I'll do distributive property next time
Answer:
x = -45, y = -40
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the first clue, we find out that
x + 5 = y
5x = 6y + 15
We can re-write the first equation to x = y - 5.
Therefore, the second equation can also be written as 5(y - 5) = 6y + 15
This can be simplified to 5y - 25 = 6y + 15
We can subtract 6y from each side, and add 25 to each side;
5y - 6y = 15 + 25
Therefore, -y = 40
Therefore y = -40.
Now let's plug this back into the original equation, to get : x + 5 = -40
x=-45
Answer:
2:3 I think
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, let us first assign variables. Let
us say that:
A = runner
B = cyclist
d = distance
v = velocity
time = t
The time in which the cyclist overtakes the runner is the
time wherein the distance of the two is the same, that is:
dA = dB
We know that the formula for calculating distance is:
d = v t
therefore,
vA tA = vB tB
Further, we know that tA = tB + 2, therefore:
vA (tB + 2) = vB tB
4 (tB + 2) = 14 tB
4 tB + 8 = 14 tB
10 tB = 8
tB = 0.8 hours = 48 min
Therefore the cyclist overtakes the runner after 0.8
hours or 48 minutes.
