vodomira [7]3 years ago

first what quantities do we need to talk about?

the problem speaks of “a number”, let’s call that number x.

now write the equation that relates x to the other numbers we know.

the first clue is the word “difference”.

this means “subtraction”, but we need to subtract something from something else.

what are the two somethings? ”a number times 7” and “4”.

so, since we have a name for “a number”, let’s translate this as x*7 - 4 what else do we know?

it says the difference is 9. So complete the equation x*7 - 4 = 9 if we rewrite this cosmetically, 7x - 4 = 9

i assume that you know how to solve this for x.

so then wehn solving 7x - 4 =9 we take -4 change it to +4 so then +9 we go and get 13

7x = 13

7/7 = 13/7

x=  13/7

Answer:

180

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between 68 and 23 is 45. The company charging 23$ has to be 45$ more for the amount of hours. When you multiply 180 by .4 you get 72, and when you multiply 180 by .65 you get 117. The difference is 45.

Sorry that I didn't show my work, I don't really know how to do this other than plugging in random numbers and 180 fits so...

Hope this helps!

The expression D over T can be used to find the average speed of an object that travels a distance D in time T what is a cars av
Mashutka [201]
So, you basically plug the values into the formula you have been given. D divided by T gives you the average speed.
We know the distance D is 145 miles and the Time T is 2.5 hours.

So, 145/2.5=58

Therefore, the cars average speed was 58 miles / hour
