D=vt, distance is equal to velocity times time.
4v+3(v+3)=149 perform indicated multiplication
4v+3v+9=149 combine like terms on left side
7v+9=149 subtract 9 from both sides
7v=140 divide both sides by 7
v=20
So the ship traveled at a speed of 20 mph when heading east.
There's no problem so we can't answer it
Do you need both of the equations or just the entire solution?
Answer: d=20/3
Step By Step:
Step 1, Simplify:
12-3/4(d+16)=-5
(-3/4)d+(12-12)=-5
(-3/4)d=-5
Step 2, Multiply each side by 4/(-3)
(4/-3)*(-3/4)d=(4/-3)*-5
d=20/3
