n = # of days
45 = 2.5n + 2n
45 = 4.5n
n = 10
He can paint 45 structures in 10 days
Bring like terms together
(REMEMBER CHANGE THE SIGN WHEN MOVING ACROSS THE EQUAL SIGN i.e. - becomes + and + becomes -)
4x - 2x = 7 - 3
2x = 4
divide both sides by 2
x = 2
Answer:
2 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let B = age on Ben
and age of Izzy =I
B =4I
B = 6+I
Gives 6+I = 4I
6 = 3I
I =2 years and B = 4x2 = 8years
Age of Izzy = 2 years
Answer:
14 apples
Step-by-step explanation:
Just count the x
Answer:
1st ∡ = 15.5°
2nd ∡ = 77.25°
3rd ∡ = 87.25°
Step-by-step explanation:
1st ∡: x
2nd ∡: y
3rd ∡: z
Equations we can create from data given in problem:
y + z = 5x
z = 5x + 10
We have enough expressions to create an equation:
x + 5x + 5x + 10 = 180
11x = 170
x = 15.5
y = 5(15.5) = 77.25
z = y + 10 = 87.25
