The value of x in the equation is 26.7

<h3>How to solve an equation?</h3>

0.75x + 1.5y = 40

−1.5x − 1.5y = −60

add both equation to eliminate y .

Therefore,

−1.5x + 0.75x = -0.75x

1.5y + (- 1.5y) = 0

40 + (-60) = -20

Hence,

-0.75x = - 20

divide both sides by -0.75

-0.75x / -0/75 = - 20 / -0.75

x = - 20 / -0.75

x = 26.6666666667

x = 26.7

A room is 5 meters by meters . How many square 14-inch tiles will it take to floor the room ? I meant to say a room is 5 meters

lesya [120]

Given:

Room is 5 meters by 8 meters.

Measure of squaree tiles is 14-inch.

$\begin{gathered} \text{Area of the room=5}\times8 \\ \text{Area of the room=}40m^2 \end{gathered}$ $1m^2=1550inch^2$ $\begin{gathered} \text{Area of each tile=14}\times14 \\ \text{Area of each tile=}196inch^2 \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} \text{Number of tiles to floor the room=}\frac{40\times1550}{196} \\ \text{Number of tiles to floor the room}=316.3265 \end{gathered}$

Approximately 316 tiles are required to floor the room.

Convert the length 7 centimeters to meters. Compare the numerical values when both numbers are written in scientific notation

miv72 [106K]

<span>1. </span><span>Given numbers
=> 7 centimeters convert to meters
In every 1 meter there are 100 centimeters
=> 7 / 100
=> 0.07
Therefore in 7 centimeters there are 0.07 meters.
7 cm is a whole number while 0.07 m is a decimal number
Scientific Notation of each numbers
=> 7 cm = 7 x 10^0
=> 7 m = 1 x 10^-2
Scientific notation by the way is an expression used by the scientist to make a large number or very small number easy to handle.
