x= -3

Step-by-step explanation:

6x+8=4x+2 (subtract 8)

6x=4x-6 (subtract 4x)

2x = -6 (divide both sides by 2)

x= -3

A car is driving at 100 kilometers per hour. How far does it travel in 2 seconds?

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{18}\ km$ or $\frac{500}{9}\ m$

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that

1 hour=3,600 seconds

by using proportion

$\frac{100}{3,600}\frac{km}{sec} =\frac{x}{2}\frac{km}{sec} \\ \\x=2*100/3,600\\ \\x=\frac{1}{18}\ km$

Convert to meters

$(1,000)*(\frac{1}{18})=\frac{500}{9}\ m$

Firlakuza [10]

Subtract 9 from each side of the equation. so you would get 1<x. meaning that any number larger then 1 would correctly solve the equation.
