Flight time from Houston to Orlando is 2 hours to 20 minutes. I arrived at Orlando at 4:15 pm. What time did I set of ?

1:55 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

So, you arrive at 4: 15 pm in Orlando after a 2 hr and 20 minute flight from Houston.  So, lets start with the easy part: let's subtract the 2 hrs part.  

2 hrs earlier from 4:15 pm is 2:15 pm.

Then, you have to subtract the 20 minutes.  Well, it's quite obvious that if you left at 2:00 pm, that would be a total of 2 hrs and 15 minutes.  Just subtract the 15 minutes from the 2:15 pm.  However, it's 20 minutes, not 15, so you have to still subtract that last five minutes.  

So, 2:00 pm minus 5 minutes would equal 1:55 pm.

d. is the correct answer

step-by-step explanation:

37/3

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

)=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.
