Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

d1 = d

d2 = 75 - d

r1 = x

r2 = x + 7

t = 3

Equation

x*t + (x + 7)*t = 75

This equation represents the total distance travelled. Neither one of the cyclists have gone 75 miles, but they both have gone distances that equal a total of 75 miles.

Solution

3x + (x + 7)*3 = 75

3x + 3x + 21 = 75

6x + 21 = 75

6x = 54

6x/6 = 54/6

x = 9

Answer

The first cyclist is going 9 miles / hr

The second cyclist is going 16 miles / hour

3(3 - 8x) - 1 = -6x - 28
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

3(3 - 8x) - 1 = -6x - 28

Distribute

9 -24x -1 = -6x -28

Combine like terms

8 -24x = -6x -28

Add 24x to each side

8-24x+24x = -6x-28+24x

8 = 18x-28

Add 28 to each side

8+28 = 18x-28+28

36 = 18x

Divide each side by 18

36/18 = 18x/18

2 =x

Find the sum of 10 x 2 + 7 x + 6 10x 2 +7x+6 and 6 x + 5 6x+5.
dusya [7]

The sum of the given expression expressed as a quadratic equation is 10x^2 + 13x + 11

<h3>Sum of expressions</h3>

Expressions are equations separated by mathematical signs. This expressions are known to contains certain unknowns

Given the following expression

10x^2 +7x+6 and 6x + 5

We are to take the sum of both expression to have:

f(x) = 10x^2 +7x+6 + 6x + 5

Collect the like terms

f(x) = 10x^2 + 7x + 6x + 6 + 5

f(x) = 10x^2 + 13x + 11

Hence the sum of the given expression expressed as a quadratic equation is 10x^2 + 13x + 11
