Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A = Adam, B = Betty
Adam and Betty purchased a printer together for $258.
This means we can say A + B = 258.
We are also told Adam paid $18 less than twice Betty.
You can write this as:
Adam = 2 x Betty - 18
A = 2B - 18
Substitute "A" into the A + B equation and you get:
A + B = 258
2B - 18 + B = 258
3B - 18 = 258
Add 18 to both sides.
3B = 258 + 18
3B = 276
Divide both sides by 3 to find B
B = 276/3 = 92 (This means Betty paid $92).
Since the total that they paid together was $258.
This means Adam pays the Total - How much Betty paid
Adam = 258 - 92 = $166
15 times .25 or 1/4
(1lbs=4 kids, 15 divided by 4= 3.75)
6.25 divided by .5 is over 12
so 12 adults
Answer:
x = - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Length ( l ) = 2x + 8 cm
Width / Breadth ( b ) = 2 cm
Area ( rectangle ) = 12 cm
Formula : -
Area ( rectangle ) = lb
12 = ( 2x + 8 ) ( 2 )
Divide 2 on both sides,
12 / 2 = ( 2x + 8 ) ( 2 ) / 2
6 = 2x + 8
2x + 8 = 6
2x = 6 - 8
2x = - 2
x = - 2 / 2
x = - 1
Answer: 17
Step-by-step explanation: 4x6= 24. then 21 divided by 3= 7. 24-7= 17
