Answer:
c. x = -1/15
Step-by-step explanation:
5/2x - 1/3 = -1/2 [multiply the whole equation by 6 (lowest common denom)
15x - 2 = -3 [add 2 on both sides of equation
15x = -1 [divide both sides by 15 to isolate x]
x = -1/15
Tarantulas are 5.9 centimeters longer.
For this problem, all you need to do is find the three #'s that add up to 156.
So, lets look at the answers and add them up.
A. 50, 52, 54
50 + 52 + 54 = 156
B. 51,52,53
51 + 52 + 53 = 156
C. 49,50,51
49 + 50 + 51 = 150
D. 49,51,53
49 + 51 + 53 = 153
We get the answers (50,52,54) and (51,52,53)
Now, consecutive numbers are numbers that in order, like 1,2,3.
Therefore, the answer is (51,52,53)
A. The equation to find the distance of the flowerbed from the hive is: 
, where x is the distance.
B. The flowerbed is 2250 feet far from the hive.
<u><em>Explanation</em></u>
Suppose, the distance of the flowerbed from the hive is 
feet.
The bee flies 20 feet per second directly to a flowerbed from its hive and flies directly back to the hive at 12 feet per second.
As, 
So, the time taken by the bee to reach the flowerbed 
seconds and the time taken to fly back to the hive 
seconds.
The bee stays at the flowerbed for 15 minutes or (15×60)seconds or 900 seconds and it is away from the hive for a total of 20 minutes or (20×60)seconds or 1200 seconds.
So, the equation will be.......
Thus, the distance of the flowerbed from the hive is 2250 feet.
Answer:
16.364 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed of Claire = 6 miles per hour
Speed of Megan= 5 miles per hour
Distance from camp site to out post = 18 miles
Time for Claire to travel=18/6= 3 hours
Time for Megan to travel = 18/5 = 3.6 hours
The time they meet will be equal
Claire distance= 18 + x
Megan distance = 18-x
Claire time =( 18+x)/6
Megan Tim =( 18-x)/5
(18+x)/6 =(18-x)/5
5(18+x)= 6(18-x)
90 +5x = 108-6x
11x=18
X=18/11
X=1.636 Miles
So the distance from the Outpost to where they meet = 18-1.636
= 16.364 miles
