Question:- Alana biked 12 miles in 48 minutes. What is Alana's speed in miles per minute?
Answer:-
Set up a proportion.
12/48 = 1/x
Cross multiply.
12*x = 12x
48*1 = 48
12x = 48
12x/12 = 48/12
x= 48/12
x= 4
Now, we have our final answer. x = 4
Final answer:- Alana bikes 4 miles per minute.
Hello!
To do this we need to combine like terms, meaning combine the terms that have the same variables.
b is one variable that can be combined:
-2b - 6 + 3b - 2
b - 6 - 2
Now, combine the digits:
b - 8
Hope this helped!

5% of 32.50 is 1.625
1.625+32.50=34.125
$34.125
----------------------------------
Define x :
----------------------------------
Let the width be x.
Width = x
Length = 2x + 5 // Length is 5ft longer than twice the width
----------------------------------
Formula for Perimeter :
----------------------------------
Perimeter = 2 (Length + Width)
----------------------------------
Find Width :
----------------------------------
58 = 2 ( 2x + 5 + x) // Substitute Length and Width into formula
58 = 2 (3x + 5) // Combine like terms
58 = 6x + 10 // Apply distributive property
48 = 6x // Take away 10 from both sides
6x = 48 // Switch sides. Make x the subject
x = 8 // Divide by 6 on both sides
----------------------------------
Find Length and Width :
----------------------------------
Width = x = 8 ft
Length = 2x + 5 = 2(8) + 5 = 21 ft
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The length is 21 ft and the width is 8 ft.
