I would think this is many solutions, the reason is because, there is no specific answer (y) so, x could be anything because it would have to equal to y, which could also be anything! I hope im right! Sorry if im wrong!
Answer:
x=1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
9x+5-3=5
9x=3
x=1/3
The length of hours Gilbert drove is 7.5 hours.
The length of hours Brian drove is 4.1 hours.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
- Gilbert averaged = 45 miles per hour
- Brain averaged = 65 miles per hour
- Total hours = 11.6 hours
- Total distance = 604 miles
Let 'x' be the hours Gilbert drove.
Let 'y' be the hours Brian drove.
x+y = 11.6 -----(1)
45x+65y = 604 -----(2)
Multiply (1) by 45 and subtract (2) from (1)
45x+45y = 522
-(<u>45x+65y = 604</u>)
<u> -20y = -82 </u>
y = 82/20
y = 4.1 hours
The length of hours Brian drove = 4.1 hours
Substitute y=4.1 in (1)
x+4.1 = 11.6
x = 7.5 hours
The length of hours Gilbert drove = 7.5 hours
Hello!
We know that, in terms of radians and degrees, that an angle that turns through the entirety of a circle is 360 degrees. To find 1/3 of it, we just multiply by 1/3.
360(1/3)=120
Therefore, our answer is 120°.
I hope this helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
L = length
W = width
L = W + 9
A = 112 = LW = (W+9)W
So,
W2 + 9W = 112
W2 + 9W - 112 = 0
Factoring
(W-7)(W+16) = 0
W = 7, -16
We discard W = -16, since a measurement cannot be negative.
W = 7
And since L = W + 9, then L = 7 + 9 = 16
This is a 16x7 rectangle
