2x+1=5x-44 that would be your equation

next start to simplify 

subtract 1 from both sides so you are left with 2x=5x-45

then subtract 5x from both sides and you have -3x=-45

then finally divide -3 from -45 to get x=15

Answer:

PQ=31\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In this problem Q is the midpoint of PR

so

PQ=QR

we have

PQ=2x+1 -----> equation A

QR=5x-44 -----> equation B

equate equation A and equation B

2x+1=5x-44

solve for x

5x-2x=1+44

3x=45

x=15

Find the value of PQ

PQ=2x+1 ------> PQ=2(15)+1=31\ units

Romashka [77]

Answer:

The sampling option Hamden city's police department needs to choose is to select a random sample of 10% of all taxpayers.

Since the Hamden city’s police department needs to choose whether to build a new addition to the police station or to buy new squad cars. And it needs money to choose any of these options. The money usually comes from the packets of taxpayers. Therefore, it would be appropriate to take a random sample of 10% of all taxpayers.

Ainsley lives in a town 360 miles directly north of Orlando, and one Saturday, she takes the train from her town to the city. he
iragen [17]
By definition we have to:
 d = v * t
 where,
 d: distance
 v: speed
 t: time
 We have then that the speed is:
 (360-210) = v * 2.5
 Clearing we have:
 v = (360-210) /2.5
 v = 60 mph
 We now write the generic equation of distance:
 d (x) = 60x
 Where,
 x: time
 Answer:
 
an equation that represents (x), the distance Ainsley is from Orlando after x hours is:
 
d (x) = 60x
