Answer:
- 2
Step-by-step explanation:
3 ( x + 5 ) = 9
x + 5 = 9 / 3
x + 5 = 3
x = 3 - 5
x = - 2
There is no list and no choices given.
The solutions of | x | = 10 are x = 10 and x = -10 .
All (both) solutions happen to be integers.
There are no other solutions.
Step-by-step explanation:
let the first-day ride be x
Then the second-day ride will be
=1.5
x
The third-day ride will be=1.5(1.5x)
The Fourth-day ride will be=1.5*1.5(1.5x)
hence for the four days the distance covered is
65=x+1.5x+1.5*1.5x+1.5*1.5*1.5x
65=x+1.5x+2.25x+3.375x
65=8.125x
divide both sides by 8.125 we have
x=65/8.125
x=8mile
the first-day ride be x=8miles
the second-day ride will be
=1.5
x
=1.5*8= 12miles
The third-day ride will be=1.5(1.5x) = 18miles
The Fourth-day ride will be=1.5*1.5(1.5x) = 27miles
