Answer:
There needs to be 174 Students in the 8th grade class.
Step-by-step explanation:
173(1/3) is 58
58+17=75
Answer: k = -5
explanation-
distribute: -3k + -21 - 5k + 4= 23
combine: -8k -17 = 23
add 17 to both sides: -8k = 40
divide both sides by -8: k=-5
Answer:
speed of car A =Speed of car B=0.8 miles/minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that speed of car A is equal to speed of car B.
Also let car A travels x miles.
and car B travels y miles.
Car A reaches its destination in 17 minutes.
this means that speed of car A is given by: miles/minutes ( since speed is defined as the ratio of distance and time).
Car B reaches its destination in 32 minutes.
This means that the speed of car B is given by: miles/minutes
as speed of both cars are equal this means:
------(1)
Also we are given Car B travels 12 miles farther than Car A.
this means
------(2)
on using equation (1) and (2) we have:
Hence the speed of car A is 0.8 miles/minutes ( since x/17 is the speed of car A)
Speed of car B=0.8 miles/minutes.
Ok, so first off you need to remember that your goal is to get x alone.
How do you do this? Well, let's get rid of that pesky negative ten, shall we?
The opposite of a negative is positive, so you can move negative ten to the other side of the problem by adding ten. Make sure that you do operations on both sides. Once you add, you have 3x=18. When a number is right next door to an x, it means it is being multiplied. To get rid of the three, divide by three on both sides. Now your get x=6, which is your answer. Hopefully, I explained this well! :D
