Answer:

x=16

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x}{8} + 3 = 5$

Take the 3 to the other side of the equation

$\frac{x}{8} = 5 - 3$

$\frac{x}{8} = 2$

Cross multiply

$x = 8 \times 2$

$x = 16$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve this:

$a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}$

The legs of the triangle are put into either a or b and the hypotenuse is put into c. In this case, they've already given you the hypotenuse, but now you need to find the leg:

$45^{2} + b^{2} = 51^{2}$

2025 + $b^{2}$ = 2601

Subtract 2025 from both sides:

2025 + $b^{2}$ = 2601

-2025 -2025

_____________

$b^{2}$ = 576

Square root:

$\sqrt{b^{2} } = \sqrt{576}$

b = 24

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer: -60 > -160

Roberto has the higher final score.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

-60 is greater than -160, because -60 is father to the right than -160 on the number line (see attachment)

Since the direction of < and > always points towards the smallest number.

-60 > -160

Roberto has the higher final score.

Answer:

4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the height of the tower when finished.

We have been given that Priya takes a break when the tower is 2 and 1/2 feet tall, which is 5/8 of the height of the tower she wants to build.

This means that 5/8 of x equals 2 and 1/2. Let us represent this information in an equation.

5/8*x=2 and 1/2

Let us convert our given mixed fraction into an improper fraction.

5/8*x=5/2

Let us multiply both sides of our equation by 8/5.

8/5*5/8*x=5/2*8/5

x=8/2

x=4
