You can check your answer by multiplying 3 with 4 <span>and then add 6 to the product. Then your result will be 18.</span>
The two angles form a straight line which is equal to 180 degrees. This makes the angles supplemtary.
To find x, add the two angles together to equal 180:
7x + x+20 = 180
Combine like terms:
8x + 20 = 180
Subtract 20 from both sides:
8x = 160
Divide both sides by 8:
X = 20
Let's solve for x.
−x+9y=−5
Step 1: Add -9y to both sides.
−x+9y+−9y=−5+−9y
−x=−9y−5
Step 2: Divide both sides by -1.
−x ÷ −1 = −9y−5 ÷ −1
x=9y+5
THE ANSWER FOR THE OTHER EQUATION: (x-5y=1)
Let's solve for x.
x−5y=1
Step 1: Add 5y to both sides.
x−5y+5y=1+5y
x=5y+1
Answer:
x=5y+1
I hope this helped I was a little confused on what your problem meant...so if this is not what you asked for just lmk so I can fix it for you :)
Answer:
131.3 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The two cars are moving from different directions. The total distance between the two cars = 118 miles + 256 miles = 374 miles.
Let us assume that the two cars meet at point O, let the distance between car c and O be d₁, the distance between car d and point O be d₂, hence:
d₁ + d₂ = 374 miles (1)
Let speed of car d be x mph, therefore speed of car c = 2x mph (twice of car d). If it take the cars t hours to meet at the same point, hence
For car c:
2x = d₁/t
t = d₁ / 2x
For car d;
x = d₂/t
t = d₂/ x
Since it takes both cars the same time to meet at the same point, therefore:
d₁/2x = d₂ / x
d₁ = 2d₂
d₁ - 2d₂ = 0 (2)
Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously gives d₁ = 249.3 miles, d₂ = 124.7 miles
Therefore the distance from point of meet to Boston = 249.3 - 118 = 131.3 miles
