Answer:
3/
8 is greater than 3/
12 because if you cross multiply 12 times 3 is 36 and 3 times 8 is 24

Answer: 24 (choice C)</h3>
Assuming M is a midpoint of KW, this means that WM and KM are congruent
WM = KM
x+3 = 2(x-3) ... substitution
x+3 = 2x-6
2x-6 = x+3
2x-6-x = x+3-x .... subtract x from both sides
x-6 = 3
x-6+6 = 3+6 ... add 6 to both sides
x = 9
Use x = 9 to find the length of WM
WM = x+3 = 9+3 = 12
Which can be used to find the length of KM as well
KM = 2(x-3) = 2(9-3) = 2(6) = 12
both lengths are the same (12) as expected
This makes WK to be
WK = WM + KM
WK = 12 + 12
WK = 24
I like math because it gets me thinking a lot. math helps me in the world because we need to know how to do math in order to go shopping or we will not give the cashier the correct amount or maybe you will give them an extra amount of money because you can't do math.
Answer: at 50 mph, she drove for 4 hours.
at 45 mph, she drove for 2 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t represent the time that she spent driving at 50 miles per hour.
Taylor took 6 hours to drive home from college for Thanksgiving break. This means that the time that she spent driving at 45 miles per hour is (6 - t) hours.
Distance = speed × time
Distance covered while driving 50 miles per hour is
50t
Distance covered while driving 45 miles per hour is
45(6 - t)
Since the total distance that she drove is 290 miles, it means that
50t + 45(6 - t) = 290
50t + 270 - 45t = 290
50t - 45t = 290 - 270
5t = 20
t = 20/5 = 4
At 45 miles per hour, she drove at
6 - 4 = 2 hours
Answer:
x = 38
y = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
To find x, you do
(2x + 5) = (3x - 33)
Subtract 2x from both sides to isolate x on one side, you get:
5 = (x - 33)
Add 33 to both sides to separate the normal number from the x, you get:
38 = x
From there, you plug x into one of the equations
2(38) + 5
The answer's 81, meaning that angle is 81 degrees. Using supplementary angles, you can find that angle ACD = 99, which you can use to find angle BCE. You'll get this equation:
(4y - 1) = 99
Add one to both sides to get rid of it, you get:
4y = 100
Divide by four, to get the y all alone:
y = 25
I hope this helped!
