It's 180 inches of wrapping paper.
Answer:
n = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Represent the number by n. Then "seven less than twice a number is -5 becomes 2n - 7 = -5
Next we must solve for n. Adding 7 to both sides yields 2n = 2, so that
n = 1
6.5 goes in the first box and 5.5 goes in the second box.
Explanation for first box: 13+2 is 15 and half of 15 is 7.5 so you need to take 13 and subtract 7.5. Once you do that, you end up with 6.5
Explanation for second box: (The negative 7 doesn't matter because you want the absolute value) 18+7 is 25 and half of 25 is 12.5. 18-12.5 is 5.5 so the answer would be 5.5
Answer:
3(x - 5)(x + 1).
Step-by-step explanation:
3x^2 - 12x - 15
Dividing through by 3:
= 3(x^2 - 4x - 5)
We need 2 numbers whose sum is -4 and whose product = -5. That is -5 and +1 , so the factors are:
3(x - 5)(x + 1).
Time for first plane = 625 / 250
= 2.5 hours
after 1.25 hours
boeing 747 takes 1.25 hours (2.5 - 1.25) to arrive at the same location at the same time
so, speed = distance / time
= 625 / 1.25
= 500
the average speed of the boeing 747 is 500 mph
