Hey there!
"9 pounds more than" means that you'll be adding 9 to the expression.
"half the weight w" means that you'll be calculating half of w each time you solve the equation, or 0.5w.
Your entire expression will be 0.5w + 9.
Hope this helped you out! :-)
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
let r represent red marbles then white = 2r + 5 and total is 20, thus
r + 2r + 5 = 20 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
3r = 15 ( divide both sides by 3 )
r = 5 ← number of red marbles
Thus number of white = 20 - 5 = 15
Answer:
1.9 m
Step-by-step explanation:
3.5 - (4*0.4)
3.5 - 1.6 = 1.9
Alright so if I do remember my math correctly, this is how it goes:
- y = -x^2 + x + 3
- x = -b/2a
- x = -1/2(-1)
- x = -1/-2, which = (1/2)
Not quite sure if this was correct, but if it was, hope this helps and you're welcome! :)
