Answer:
I will assume that the term "x+2/2" is meant to be "(x + 2)/2)." Otherwise the equation would read (x/3) = x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
(x/3) = (x + 2)/2
x = 3*(x+2)/2 [Multiply both sides by 3]
x = (3x + 6)/2
x = (3/2)x + 6/2
x - (3/2)x = 3
-0.5x = 3
x = -6
====================
Check:
Does (x/3) = (x + 2)/2 for x = -6?
(-6/3) = (-6 + 2)/2
-2 = -4/2
-2 = -2 YES
Answer:
A) d = 48t, d in miles, t in hours
B)d = 32t, d in miles, t in hours
C)y = 8 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
16 miles in 20 mins = 48 mph
16 miles in 30 mins = 32 mph
The boat speed is the average = (48 + 32)/2 = 40 mph
The current is the difference = 8 mph
Number of pounds of cashews is 36 pounds and number of pounds of walnuts is 4 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Given details are cost of cashews = $1.58, cost of walnuts = 78 cents = $0.78, total weight of nuts = 40 pounds, cost of nuts per pound = $1.50
- Step 2: Let number of pounds of cashews to be mixed be C, then number of pounds of walnuts will 40 - C. Form equation with these variables.
⇒ 1.58 C + (40-C) 0.78 = 40 × 1.50
⇒ 1.58 C + 31.2 - 0.78 C = 60
⇒ 1.58 C - 0.78 C = 60 - 31.2
⇒ 0.8 C = 28.8
⇒ C = 36 pounds
- Step 3: Calculate number of pounds of walnuts
⇒ Number of pounds of walnuts = 40 - C = 4 pounds
