The answer to the question is
C.
Answer:
x = 9. Rearrange variables to the left side of the equation: - x = - 5 - 4
Calculate the sum or difference: x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
i think it is 5 in not sure hope this had helped
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Explanation:
<u>1. Calculate the average speed of train B</u>
- 60mph = 3/4 (s) ⇒ s = 60 (4/3) mph = 80 mph
<u>2. Build a table</u>
When the two trains meet:
Train Average speed Distance time (distance/average speed)
mph
A 60 x x/60
B 80 240 - x (240 - x) / 80
<u>3. Write the equation</u>
The time, when the two trains meet, is the same for both trains:
<u>4. Calculate the time:</u>
- x/60 = 102.86 / 60 = 1.7 hours
The two trains will meet after 1.7 hours
Line CA is a straight line, meaning it adds up to 180°
Line BE splits the line into two supplementary angles, because when the two angles are added together they will equal 180°
Using the rule of supplementary angles, we can then make the equation 3x + 8x + 15 = 180
Now, simplify the equation by combining like terms
11x + 15 = 180
To solve, isolate x
11x + 15 = 180
11x = 165
x = 15
