M=4
first we take the 4.5 to the other side and we also take the 12 to other side so we get
1.5m=6
we divided each side we get m=4
Change the messy words into numerals
3 times a number minus 2 equals 13
3 × n - 2 = 13
3n - 2 = 13
take 2 to the other side
3n - 2 + (2) = 13 + (2)
3n = 15
Divide by 3 on either sides to isolate n
=
3 and 3 cancels out
n = 5
check:
3 times 5 minus 2 equals 13
3 × 5 - 2 = 13
15 - 2 = 13
13 = 13
The number is 5
(1500 meters) / (about 3.5 minutes) =
(1500/about 3.5) (meters/minute) =
<em>about 428.6 meters/minute</em>
Answer:
0,-7 or anywhere i guess-
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Total laps = 10d
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c = Carl's laps
d = Daria's laps
e = Erin's laps
c = 3d
c = e/2
c + d + e = totals laps
We can insert 3d in place of c in the third equation
3d + d + e = total laps
Also, e/2 equals 3d
e/2 = 3d
Multiply both sides by 2
(e/2 = 3d)2
e = 6d
Insert the new e
3d + d + 6d = 10d = totals laps
