Let's take another look at the question:
If 4 is subtracted from twice a number the result is 10 less than the number.
let x = the number
"if 4 is subtracted from" is the same as
-4
"from twice a number" is the same as
2x
so put them together,
2x-4
"the result is"
=
2x-4=
10 less than
-10
the number
x
2x-4=x-10
now we find x
subtract x from both sides to get
x-4=-10
add 4 to both sides to get
x=-6
to check, plug in the value of x into the original equation
If you have any further questions, just ask me

First we can make an equation out of this statement. 2x-4=x-10 and now we will solve it 2x-4=x-10 2x-x=-10+4 X=-10+4=-6

Habiendose organizado un bingo se ha recaudado $1900. Por la entrada de hombres $15 y mujeres $10 y se ha reportado una asistenc
aev [14]

Answer:

The number of men was 80

The number of women was 70

Step-by-step explanation:

The question in English is

Having organized a bingo has raised $1900. For the entrance of men $15 and women $10 and an attendance of 150 people has been reported. Determine the number of men and the number of women who participated in the bingo.

Let

x----> the number of men

y----> the number of women

we know that

x+y=150

x=150-y -----> equation A

15x+10y=1,900 -----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B and solve for y

15(150-y)+10y=1,900

2,250-15y+10y=1,900

15y-10y=2,250-1,900

5y=350

y=70

Find the value of x

x=150-70=80

therefore

The number of men was 80

The number of women was 70

The first tern of an arithmetic sequence is -3 and the fifteenth term id 53. What is the common difference of the sequence?
arsen [322]
The common difference is 4. U know that the formula is the first term + d(n -1). N-1 is 14 so u know that 14 times a number needs to equal 56 because the first term is -3 and 56-3 is 53. 14 * 4 is 56. So the common difference is 4

F/13 = 6.2 what is the value of f
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

The value of f is 80.6.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation and asked to solve for f.

If we are given a fraction with a variable in the numerator, we can multiply both sides of the equation by the denominator to isolate it.

For example, if you look at this equation:

\displaystyle\frac{a}{26}=17.9

We can multiply both sides by 26 to get the a by itself so the equation can be solved.

\displaystyle26\times\frac{a}{26}=17.9\times26\\\\a = 465.4

Therefore, we can apply this same technique to the equation \frac{f}{13}=6.2.

\displaystyle\frac{f}{13}=6.2\\\\13\times\frac{f}{13}=6.2\times13\\\\f = 80.6\ \text{or} \ \frac{403}{5}

Therefore, the value of f is 80.6.
