The car catches up with the truck after a distance of 360 miles from point A.

Speed is the ratio of distance travelled to total time taken. It is given by:

Speed = distance / time

For truck:

60 = d / t

d = 60t

Since the car leaves the truck after 2 hours, hence:

For the car:

90 = d/ (t - 2)

d = 90t - 180

For the truck and car to catch up:

60t = 90t - 180

30t = 180

t = 6 hours

d = 60t = 60(6) = 360 miles

The car catches up with the truck after a distance of 360 miles from point A.

If 5 x 6 = 30 you can figure out 8 x 6 by adding 6 three times to 30!

30 + 6 = 36

36 + 6 = 42

42 + 6 = 48 <-- the answer is 48!

One positive number is 3 more than twice another. If their product is 629, find the numbers.
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

17,37

Step-by-step explanation:

one number = x

The positive number = 2x + 3

x * (2x+3) = 629

x*2x + x *3 = 629

2x² + 3x - 629 = 0

2x² - 34x + 37x - 17*37 =0

2x*(x -17) + 37(x - 17) = 0

(x - 17)(2x + 37) = 0

x - 17 = 0 ;     Ignore  2x + 37 as s is a positive number

x = 17

Positive number = 2*17 +3 = 34+3 = 37

Math - algebra (9th grade) please include work
Naily [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Y)  \frac{x+4}{8} = 3

*multiply both sides by 8 - cancels out 8 in denominator*

x + 4 = 24

*subtract 4 from both sides*

x = 20

E) \frac{x-5}{2} = 1

*multiply both sides by 2 - cancels out 2 in denominator*

x - 5 = 2

*add 5 on both sides*

x = 7

N) \frac{x+2}{4} = 2

* multiply both sides by 4 - cancels out 4 in denominator*

x + 2 = 8

*subtract 2 from both sides*

x = 6
