\dfrac{75 miles}{hour} * \dfrac{1 hour}{60 minues} = \dfrac{1.25 miles}{minute}

Now you want to set up a proportion.

1.25 miles:1 minute :: x : 15 minutes  Set up the proportion

\dfrac{1.25 miles}{1 minute}= \dfrac{x }{15 minutes}  Cross multiply

1.25 miles * 15 minutes = x * 1 minute

18.75 miles * minutes = x * 1 minute. Divide by minutes

x = 18.75 miles. Answer

If x+y=9, and 8(x+3y)= 120, what is the value of x-y
Triss [41]

Answer:

3

Explanation:

Apply Multiplicative Distribution Law:

{x + y =9

{8x + 24y = 120

Reduce the greatest common factor on both sides of the equation.

{x + y = 9

{x + 3y = 15

Subtract the two equations: x + y - (x +3y) = 9 - 15

Remove paranthesis: x + y - x - 3y = 9 - 15

Cancel the unknown variables: y - 3y = 9 - 15

Combine like terms: -2y=9 - 15

Calculate the sum or difference: -2y = -6

Reduce the greatest common factor on both sides of the equation: y =3

Substitute one unknown quantity into the elimination: x + 3 = 9

Rearrange unknown terms to the left side of the equation: x = 9 - 3

Calculate the sum or difference: x = 6

Write the solution set of equations: {x = 6

                                                           {y = 3

Substitute: 6 - 3

Calculate the sum or difference: 3

Answer: 3

I agree with the 14x all right, but the remainder of the other part is 178. I'm going to recheck my answer. I'm not confident about using synthetic division for this question. It is 57 years since I did something like this. If I was more confident, I would list the results of synthetic division because it is much easier to show than long division. I'm saying the answer should be 14x + 178.

Write a scenario that could be represented by this equation: 3/4x = 12
Aneli [31]

Answer:

x=1 or x=16

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4x = 12      or        0.75x = 12

3/4x/3/4 = 12/3/4     or     0.75x/0.75 = 12/0.75

x=12/1 / 3/4

x= 4/4

x = 1                           or       x = 16
