Answer:
1. no. 2.no
Step-by-step explanation:
1.
= (5\3) × (1/1-x)
but 8-8x = 8(1-x)
2. 2(6-3x) = 12-6x =6(2-x)
2(3x) + x= 6x +x = 7x
Answer:
Therefore,

Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Let,
point L( x₁ , y₁) ≡ ( -6 , 2)
point M( x₂ , y₂ )≡ (x , 2)
l(AB) = 15 units (distance between points L and M)
To Find:
x = ?
Solution:
Distance formula between Two points is given as

Substituting the values we get

Square Rooting we get

As point M is located in the first quadrant
x coordinate and y coordinate are positive
So x = -21 DISCARDED
Hence,

Therefore,

Answer:
Girls = 16
Total students = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
40% of the students are girls, this means 60% of the students are boys.
To find the number of girls, setup a proportion using the percentages and actual number of students in the class. I am going to make the numerator the numbers that go with the girls and the denominator will be the numbers that go with the boys.
Also let's convert the percentages to decimals by moving the decimal two places left.
40% = 0.4 and 60% = 0.6

Now let's find the total number of students by adding the number of girls to the number of boys.
16 + 24 = 40
95x=85x+288
You could add 288 to any side, it just shows that they're 288 miles apart.
Let's subtract 85x from both sides.
10x=288
28.8=x
It'll take 28.8 hours for the trains to meet. Let's make sure.
28.8×95
2,736
28.8×85
2,448
2,736-2,448
288
So, they'll meet up after 28.8 miles.
