If -13x-71=201 what is x
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

272/-13 or −20.923

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation you need to isolate the variable.

First, add 71 to both sides

-13x-71+71=201+71

-13x=272

Then, divide both sides by -13

-13x/-13=272/-13

So, x=272/-13 or −20.923

Jim drove 152 miles in 4 hours. if he can keep the same pace, how long will it take him to drive 760 miles?
alexandr402 [8]
First we need to find the rate which is the total amount driven divided by the total time.

152/4 = 38 miles per hour.

No we take the total driven miles given and divide it by the rate to find how long it would take!
760/38 = 20 hours!
Hope this helps :D
