So they had 17 left over and one Apple was cut into 8 slices. 8 goes into 17 2 times with one left over. So it would be 2 whole apples with 1 slice left over. So 17 slices converts to 2 wholes and 1 part (slice)
Set it up as an equation. "A number" is x.
2x-2=x+64
Move all of the x terms to one side by subtracting x from both sides, then add 2 to both sides to isolate x.
X=66
The number is 66
Answer:
c/e = e/d
Step-by-step explanation:
These are similar triangles. When you flip the larger one clockwise to enable you to see which sides are corresponding, then you find that:
c corresponds to e'
a corresponds to b
e corresponds to d
Therefore, c/e in the original position = e'/d in the flipped position.
<u>So c/e = e/d</u>
