h day. He ran 2 miles around the football field before
school and ran a longer route through his neighborhood after school. By the end of the week,
Russell had run a total of 30 miles.
Which equation can Russell use to find how many miles, x, he ran each day after school?
5x + 2 = 30
2(x + 5) = 30
5(x + 2) = 30
2x + 5 = 30

In maths, Distance is described as the quantity of space between two points, and further calculation can be defined as follows:

Given Expression:

5x + 2 = 30\\\\2(x + 5) = 30\\\\5(x + 2) = 30\\\\2x + 5 = 30

To find:

distance=?

Solution:

5\ days\ \begin{cases} & \text{ if } \text{before school 2 miles}    \\  & \text{ if } \text{after school x miles} \end{cases}

\therefore 5(x+2)=30\\\\

\bold{5(x+2)=30}\\\\\bold{5x+10=30}\\\\\bold{5x=30-10}\\\\\bold{5x=20}\\\\

\bold{x=\frac{20}{4} }\\\\\bold{x=4}

Therefore, the final answer is "4 miles".

Paulie ordered 250 pens and 250 pencils to sell for a theatre club fundraiser. The pens cost 11 cents more than the pencils. If
Korolek [52]
Remember that cents has a decimal when put in an equation.
250(x + 11) + 250x = 4250
250x + 2750 + 250x = 4250
500x + 2750 = 4250
500x = 1500
x = 3 cents (pencils)
x+11 = 14 cents (pens)

The shorter leg of a right triangle is 6m shorter than the longer leg. the hypotenuse is 6m longer than the longer leg. find the
Gennadij [26K]
Short leg = x-6m
Longer leg =x
Hypotenuse = x+6m

x² + (x-6)² =(x+6)²
x² + x²-12x+36 = x²+12x+36
2x²-12x+36= x² +12x+36
2x²-12x+36-36= x² +12x+36-36
2x² - 12x-12x = x²+12x-12x
2x² -24x-x² = x²-x²
x² -24x = 0
x(x-24)=0
x = 24

Short leg = 24-6m = 18
Longer leg =24
Hypotenuse = 24+6m=30

Check
a² + b² = c²
18² +24² =30²
324 +576 = 900
900=900

If the ordered pair (-5/2, y) lies on the graph of y=7-2x, find the value of y.
Viefleur [7K]

The correct answer is option B which is the value of Y will be 12.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

Given that:-

If the ordered pair (-5/2, y) lies on the graph of y=7-2x,

The value of Y will be calculated as:-

Y = 7 - 2x

Y = 7 - 2 ( -5/2 )

Y = 7 - ( - 5 )

Y = 7 + 5

Y = 12

Therefore the correct answer is option B which is the value of Y will be 12.
