Answer:x=2.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying (5x + 15) = 28 Reorder the terms: (15 + 5x) = 28 Remove parenthesis around (15 + 5x) 15 + 5x = 28 Solving 15 + 5x = 28 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-15' to each side of the equation. 15 + -15 + 5x = 28 + -15 Combine like terms: 15 + -15 = 0    0 + 5x = 28 + -15 5x = 28 + -15 Combine like terms: 28 + -15 = 13 5x = 13 Divide each side by '5'. x = 2.6 Simplifying x = 2.6

1. Which of the following measurements could be the three side lengths of a right triangle? a. 4 cm, 5 cm, 9 cm b. 12 cm, 20 cm,
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

b and c

Step-by-step explanation:

The Triangle Inequality Theorem lets us know that the sum of the two shortest sides of the triangle must be greater than the third side of the triangle.

In both A and D, the sum of the shortest two sides are equal to, not greater than the third side, so they will not form a triangle.

In B, 12+20 is 32, which is greater than 25. And in C, 18+24 is 42, which is greater than 30, so they both will form a triangle.

Answer:

2 hours

Remember that time = distance/rate

The distance you need to cover is 56 miles, while you go 28 miles per hour. Using these, we get this:

time=56/28

time=2

So it will take two hours to go across a 56 mile wide bay at 28 mph.
