Let the 1st number be x; 2nd number be y; 3rd number be z.
x + y + z = 79
x = number we are looking for.
y = x * 5 ==> 5 times the first
z = x + 16 ==> 16 more than the first
Therefor,
x + (x * 5) + (x+16) = 79
1st step, multiply the 2nd number: x * 5 = 5x
x + 5x + x + 16 = 79
Add all like numbers:
7x + 16 = 79
To get x, transfer 16 to the other side and change its sign from positive to negative.
7x = 79 - 16
7x = 63
To get x, divide both sides by 7
7x/7 = 63/7
x = 9
To check. Substitute x by 9.
x + (x * 5) + (x+16) = 79
9 + (9 * 5) + (9 + 16) = 79
9 + 45 + 25 = 79
79 = 79 equal. value of x is correct.
Answer:
Part one: The function rule for the area of the rectangle is A(x) = 3x² - 2x
Part two: The area of the rectangle is 8 feet² when its width is 2 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that the width of the rectangle is x
∵ The width of the rectangle = x feet
∵ The length of the rectangle is 2 ft less than three times its width
→ That means multiply the width by 3, then subtract 2 from the product
∴ The length of the rectangle = 3(x) - 2
∴ The length of the rectangle = (3x - 2) feet
∵ The area of the rectangle = length × width
∴ A(x) = (3x - 2) × x
→ Multiply each term in the bracket by x
∵ A(x) = x(3x) - x(2)
∴ A(x) = 3x² - 2x
∴ The function rule for the area of the rectangle is A(x) = 3x² - 2x
∵ The rectangle has a width of 2 ft
∵ The width = x
∴ x = 2
→ Substitute x by 2 in A(x)
∵ A(2) = 3(2)² - 2(2)
∴ A(2) = 3(4) - 4
∴ A(2) = 12 - 4
∴ A(2) = 8
∴ The area of the rectangle is 8 feet² when its width is 2 feet
Answer:
x + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use the order of operations, also known as PEMDAS. See attached. Please note that we cannot do what is in the parentheses first because we have a variable, so we will distribute the 2 into it. Since this is an expression, I do not believe we can fully solve for x, but can only simplify.
Given:
2(3/5x+3)
Distribute:
2 * (3/5x) + (2 * 3)
6/5x + 6
Answer:
x + 6
