The relation between distance, velocity and time can be expressed using the following equation:
Distance = velocity * time

We are given that:
Jack biked 5 1/3 hours (time = 5 1/3 hours) with average speed of 12 1/2 miles per hour (velocity = 12 1/2 miles/hour)
Substitute in the above equation to get the distance traveled by Jack as follows:
Distance traveled by Jack = 12 1/2 * 5 1/3 = 66.6667 miles

Now, we know that:
Jim traveled 1 1/5 as far as Jack, this means that:
Distance traveled by Jim = 66.6667 * 1 1/5 = 80 miles

I don't know if you are allowed to use a calculator for these problems, but I did. I am able to multiply the mixed fractions without a calculator if you need help with that please comment below.  Please let me know if you are still confused on how to get the answer! Hope this helped!

My Final Answer: Jim's trip was 146 2/3 miles long.

Which shows how to solve the equation Three-fourths x = negative 6 for x in one step?
My name is Ann [436]

option A i.e. Three-fourths (four-thirds) x = negative 6 (four-thirds).

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We have , The given expression as Three-fourths x = negative 6  , which can be written as \frac{3}{4} (x) = -6 . Now in order to solve this equation in one step , we must notice that coefficient of x must be 1 but it's  \frac{3}{4} , Let's make coefficient of x  as 1 by multiplying both side of equations by 4/3:

\frac{3}{4} (x) = -6

⇒ \frac{3}{4} (x) = -6

⇒ \frac{3}{4}(\frac{4}{3} ) (x) = -6(\frac{4}{3} )

⇒ x = -6(\frac{4}{3} )

⇒ x = -2(4)

⇒ x = -8

Therefore, x= -8 & correct option to solve the equation Three-fourths x = negative 6 for x in one step is <u>option A i.e. Three-fourths (four-thirds) x = negative 6 (four-thirds).</u>

Bruce wants to make 50 ml of an alcohol solution with a 12% concentration. He has a 10% alcohol solution and a 15% alcohol solut
wel
(50 - x) is the amount of the 15% Alcohol solution to use. If you solve for x first.
<span>0.10x + 0.15(50 – x) = 0.12(50)
0.10x - 0.15x + 7.5 = 6
-0.05x + 7.5 = 6
7.5 - 6 = 0.05x
1.5 = 0.05x
1.5/0.05 = x
30 mL = x

Then the 15% solution: 50 - 30 = 20 mL

Given: EL- tangent, EK- secant <br> Prove: EJ·LK = EL·LJ
drek231 [11]

Answer:

This is possible.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can say that m<E=m<E, because of the Reflexive Property

Then, we have angles JKL and ELJ, which are equal through the peripheral angle theorem.

With these two angles, we can say that triangles ELK and EJL are similar, by the Angle-Angle Postulate (AA).

Then we can create this ratio through the Corresponding Parts of Similar Triangles Theorem, (CPST), \frac{LK}{LJ} =\frac{EL}{EJ}.

With this ratio, we can cross multiply to get the desired result

EJ·LK=EL·LJ

Hope this helps with your RSM problem

Yup, i caught ya.
