Solve the equation. 6 = 2(x + 8)- 5x
a. 2/3
b. 3 1/3
c. - 2/3
d. -3 1/3

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 6 =2(x+8)-5x
6 =2x+16-5x
6-16=2x-5x
-10=-3x
10=3x
x=10/3
hence proved

Your record bicycle pace along a favorite trail is 16 mph. On a recent ride, you traveled the 25 mile route in a time of 90 minutes. What was your average speed? Did it break your record pace?

Answers

Remember that d = rt or distance = rate times time.  You want your answer in miles per hour so convert 90 minutes to 1.5 hours.  Now plug in your values:
25mi = r*1.5hrs.
r = 25/1.5 = 16.667mph.

This is greater than 16mph so you did break your record pace.

Answer:

You did break your pace. You were able to travle about .7 miles per hour faster.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed: Distance/time

Speed: 25/90

Speed: 16.6667 miles per hour

Speed: 16.7

In a certain pentagon, the interior angles are a degrees, b degrees, c degrees, d degrees, and e degrees where a,b,c,d,e are integers strictly less than 180. ("Strictly less than 180" means they are "less than and not equal to" 180.)If the median of the interior angles is 61 degrees and there is only one mode, then what are the degree measures of all five angles?

Answers

Answer:

In conclusion, the only possible outcome is $61^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $178^\circ,$ and $179^\circ$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so let's just dive in head on. Since we know that all the angles in a pentagon must add up to $540^{\circ}$ and that there are $5$ angles in a pentagon, we know that $61^\circ$ is the third angle,  $c$, of the pentagon. We also know that $a^\circ,$ $b^\circ,$ $c^\circ,$ $d^\circ,$ and $e^\circ,$ are all less than $180$. We know that in a regular pentagon all angles are $108^\circ$, however, the median angle is $61^\circ$ so we know that this is not a regular pentagon.


Now, since the median of our pentagon is $61^\circ$, the other numbers would center around $61$. With this information, we can figure out many solutions. However, there is one very important piece of information we almost forgot- the mode! What this means is, you cannot have an answer like $60^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $179^\circ,$ and $179^\circ$ since there is only one mode.


Now let's figure out what the mode is. Is it $61$, or is it another number? Let's explore the possibilities of the mode being $61.$ If the mode is $61,$ it could either be $b$ or $d$. Let's first think about it being $b$. This would mean that the data set is $a^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $d^\circ,$ and $e^\circ.$ The numbers would still need to add up to $540,$ so let's subtract $122$ (the two $61$'s) from $540$ to see how many more degrees we still need. We would get $418$. This means that $a,$ $d,$ and $e$ added together is $418$. If it is true that $b$ is $61,$ this would mean that $a, \leq61, 61, d, \leq e.$ If this is true, there could only be one possibility. This would be $61^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $178^\circ,$ and $179^\circ$. If we changed $a$ to $60$, then there would be two modes. $a$ can't be $59$ since then $e$ would be $180$. $a$ also can't be any higher than $61$ since then it would not be $a$ at all. So basically, if $b$ were $61$, then the data set could only be $61^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $178^\circ,$ and $179^\circ$.


But what if $d$ were $61?$ Then the data set would be $a, \leq b, 61, 61, \leq e.$ It would not be possible. This is because the highest number $e$ can be is $179.$. If this is, then we still have $239^\circ$ left to go. $a$ and $b$ would have to be greater than $61$, and this would not be possible because then it would not be $a$ and $b$ at all.  

Okay, we're almost done. What if the mode isn't $61$ at all, but a whole different number? This would either mean that $a=b$ or that $d=e$. If $d=e$ and $d=179,$ this means that $a$ and $b$ would have to both be $60.5$. We can't have two modes, and $b$ could not be $61$ because we can't have two modes. If $d$ were smaller, like $178$, then $a+b$ would need to be $123$ and this is not possible since that would be over the median of $61$. $d$ cannot be larger since that would go over the max of $179$.  

If $a=b$, let's think about if $a$ were $60$. $d+e$ would need to equal 359, and once again we can't have two modes, and $d$ could not be $179$ because $e$ cannot be $180$. If $a$ were smaller, like $59$, then $d+e$ would need to be $361$ and this is not possible since that would be over the max of $179$. $a$ cannot be larger since that would exceed the median of $61$.  

In conclusion, the only possible outcome is $61^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $178^\circ,$ and $179^\circ$.

Help plz!! The distance between two planets is 6.75·10^6 miles. The distance from the first to the third planet is 3.56·10^4 times the distance between the first two planets. Write an expression that represents the distance between the first and third planets. (Just an expression, you don't have to solve) Thanks! <3

Answers

D is distance
3.56 x 10^4 (6.75 x 10^6) = D

3.56 x 10^4 (6.75 x 10^6) = Distance
