The required answer is 10.5
7x + 17 = 7x - 17
7x + 17 - 7x = 7x - 17 - 7x
17 = -17
Inconsistent: for no value of x is the above equation true. 17 ≠ -17.
Hope this helps! :)
Forty three million, eighty thousand seven hundred
Answer:
4 km per hour and 6 km per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
The combined running rate = 30/3 = 10 km/h.
If one runner's speed = x then the other one's speed is x+2 km/h.
So x + x + 2 = 10
2x = 8
x = 4
So one runs at 4 km/h and the other at 6 km/h.
