Ok, so here, we have the unit rate of the snail. Now, we need to set up a proportion.
60/1 = 120/x
Now, cross multiply.
60*x = 120*1
60x= 120
Now divide to solve for x.
60x/60 = 120/60
x = 120/60
x= 2
Now our final answer is 2.
Final answer:- The snail will take 2 minutes to crawl 120 feet
The answer is c
Explanation:
A repeating decimal continues to go with the same number pattern. The terminating decimal stops the number pattern and does not keep repeating. The decimal for 5/9 is 0.5555... and it will keep repeating the number five.
Answer:
2x - 10 = 10 - 3x
Simplifying
2x + -10 = 10 + -3x
Reorder the terms:
-10 + 2x = 10 + -3x
Solving
-10 + 2x = 10 + -3x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '3x' to each side of the equation.
-10 + 2x + 3x = 10 + -3x + 3x
Combine like terms: 2x + 3x = 5x
-10 + 5x = 10 + -3x + 3x
Combine like terms: -3x + 3x = 0
-10 + 5x = 10 + 0
-10 + 5x = 10
Add '10' to each side of the equation.
-10 + 10 + 5x = 10 + 10
Combine like terms: -10 + 10 = 0
0 + 5x = 10 + 10
5x = 10 + 10
Combine like terms: 10 + 10 = 20
5x = 20
Divide each side by '5'.
x = 4
Simplifying
x = 4
4(p - 7) = 44
First distribute the 4 over the parentheses
4p - 28 = 44
Add 28 to both sides:-
4p = 44 + 28
4p = 72
Divide both sides by 4:-
p = 72/4
p = 18 (answer)
