Answer: 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x + 14 + 10x = 34

8x + 14 = 34

8x = 34 - 14

8x = 20

x = 20/8

x = 5/2

x = 2.5

Combine the like terms first
14 +8x =34
Subtract 14 both sides
8x = 20
Divide both sides by 8
x = 20/8
Reduce
x= 5/2
x = 2 1/2 or 2.5

Is 1.2 less than or higher than 1.5

Olenka [21]

1.2 is less than 1.5

If you cancel out 1 from both numbers you're left with .2 and .5

Multiply both by 10 and get 2 and 5.

Obviously 2 is less than 5.

The managers of franks snack shack buys hamburgers in packages of 30 and hamburger buns in packages of 24. He cannot buy part of

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

He has to buy 4 packages of hamburgers in packages of 30 and 5 packages of hamburgers in packages of 24

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to calculate the least common multiple (LCM) of 24 and 30

We will calculate the LCM of 24 and 30 by prime factorization method

24 = 2*2*2*3 = $2^{3} * 3^{1}$

30 = 2*3*5 = $2^{1} *3^{1}* 5^{1}$

LCM = $2^{3}* 3^{1}*5^{1}$

LCM = 120

So number of hamburger buns = 120

Therefore, he must buy 120/24 = 5 packages of hamburgers in packages of 24 and he must also buy 120/30 = 4 packages of hamburgers in packages of 30
