Emma is doing a science project. She is measuring the time it takes a snail to move 5 kilometres. It takes the snail one hour to move 1 20 of a kilometre. If the snail moves at the same pace, how long will it take the snail to move 5 kilometres?

41.67hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

if the snail moves 0.12km in 1hr

the snail will move 5km in Xhrs

0.12 × X = 5 × 1

0.12X= 5

X= 5/0.12 = 41.67hrs

41.76 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

I feel bad so i did the math. Good Luck! hope you get it right!

37/3

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+8(x+

)=3(6x−9)−8

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

4

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
