Answer: 10.75 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

First hour = + 18 1/2 (forward)

Second hour = - 13.5 (backward)

Third hour = + 46/8 (forward)

Given expression deducted from the questions

Total Distance = First hour + Second hour + Third hour

Substitute values into the expression

Total Distance = 18 1/2 + (-13.5) + 46/8

Convert to decimals

Total Distance = 18.5 - 13.5 + 5.75

Simplify by subtraction/addition

Total Distance = 5 + 5.75

Total Distance = $\boxed{10.75\:inches\\}$

Hope this helps!! :)

Answer:

1) $x=\dfrac12$

2) $n = -3 \ \ \textsf{and} \ \ m = -4$

3) see below

4) A: 0 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1

$15-0.5(4x-2)+4x=17$

$\implies 15-2x+1+4x=17$

$\implies 2x+16=17$

$\implies 2x=1$

$\implies x=\dfrac12$

Question 2

$\textsf{rearrange} \ n=m+1 :$

$\implies -m=-n+1$

$\textsf{add equations} \ -m=-n+1 \ \textsf{and} \ m=2n+2:\\$

$\implies0=n+3$

$\implies n=-3$

$\textsf{substitute} \ \ n=-3 \ \ \textsf{into} \ \ m=n-1:$

$\implies m=-3-1$

$\implies m=-4$

Question 3

subtract the second equation from the first

divide both sides by -4

substitute found value for y into first equation

solve for x

Question 4

$3j=k$

$k=3j+1$

$\textsf{rearrange} \ 3j=k :$

$\implies -k=-3j$

$\textsf{add equations}\ -k=-3j \ \ \textsf{and}\ \ k=3j+1:$

$\implies 0=1$

Solution = A

Solve the system and enter the smallest x-coordinate first

ankoles [38]

Answer:
(2,-3)(6,5)
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use substitution to get the equation: x^2-6x+5 = 2x-7
Solve:
x^2-6x+5 = 2x-7
x^2 = 8x-12
x^2-8x+12 = 0 (we now have a polynomial)
(x-6)(x-2) = 0 (set each equation to equal 0 and solve)
x-6 = 0 --> x=6
x-2 = 0 --> x=2
To get the Y coordinates:
y=2(2)-7 --> y = -3
y = 2(6)-7 --> y = 5

Check work:
5 = 6^2-6(6)+5 --> 5 = 36-36 +5 --> 5=5
-3 = 2^2-6(2)+5 --> -3 = 4-12+5 --> -3=-3

Help please. Please Please

iragen [17]

$2x - 6 = 60 - x \\ add \: x \: to \:both \: sides \\ 2x + x - 6 = 60 - x + x \\ 3x - 6 = 60 \\ add \: 6 \: to \: both \: sides \\ 3x - 6 + 6 = 60 + 6 \\ 3x = 66 \\ divide \: both \: sides \: by \: 3 \\ \frac{3x}{3} = \frac{66}{3} \\ x = 22$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the volume of a cone by its base and height with the equation volume = 1/3 * base * height. You can calculate the height of a cone from its volume by reversing this equation. Triple the volume amount. For this example, the volume is 100.
