Answer: it will take 2.5 hours for both people to meet after person B leaves.
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between the house of person A and his cousin's house is 234 miles.
At the point where they meet, they would have travelled 234 miles.
Person A travelled at an average speed of 44 miles per hour.
Let t represent the time spent by Person A in travelling from his house to the point where they meet.
Distance = speed × time
Distance covered by person A would be
44 × t = 44t
One and half hours later, person B leaves his house to visit person A, travelling at an average speed of 62 miles per hour. This means that total time spent by person B in travelling to the point where they meet is (t - 0.5) hours. Distance covered would be
62(t - 0.5) = 62t - 31
Since the total distance covered is 234 miles, then
44t + 62t - 31 = 234
106t = 234 + 31 = 265
t = 265/106 = 2.5 hours
The rules of exponents tell you to add exponents in the numerator and subtract those in the denominator. A power of a power causes the exponent to be multiplied.
Answer:
5:17
Step-by-step explanation:
there are 17 total marbles and 5 that are green. The part is 5 and the whole is 17.
I won't answer them all for you (don't want to cheat - need to learn something).
But for the first one given:
<span>-2x-9y=-25
-4x-9y=-23
you set up either x or y (which ever one you want to eliminate) so that one of them cancels.
So this one is easy - you just have to multiply an entire row by negative (doesn't matter which one) - so that the y's will be + and -
Since they're both 9 and they're subracting NOW - you can eliminate the y value. Now add/subtract the x's. So it'd be -2 or 2 depending on how you eliminated y. Then add the number outside of the = sign. Now just solve for x. After that plug in whatever you got for x into both of the rows. Then find the y value.
Hopefully this wasn't confusing -- reply if it is and I will try to simplify. I can give you contact if you need help with the rest
Good luck!</span>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- 4x² - 36x + 81 = 0
- (2x)² - 2*2x*9 + 9² = 0 Identity a² - 2ab + b² = (a - b)²
- (2x - 9)² = 0
- 2x - 9 = 0
- 2x = 9
- x = 4.5
