Let the three numbers be x, y and z. Then x+y+z=75.
z = 2x. y = x - 9.
Eliminate y and z by substitution: x + (x - 9) + (2x) = 75
Then 4x = 75 + 9, or 4x = 84. x = 21, y = 21 - 9 = 12, and z = 2(21) = 42.
Check: Do 21, 12 and 42 add up to 75?
You've got halfway through it! All you have to now is set the two equations equal to each other and solve for x.
2500+0.03x=1500+0.035x
1000+0.03x=0.035x
1000=0.005x
200000=x
$200,000
Good luck!
Answer:
x=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
H = 3.
FIRST STEP:
<span>Add 1 to both sides to get rid of the -1 on the left side.
4h-1 = 3h+2
</span><span>4h-1 (+1) = 3h+2 (+1)
</span><span>4h = 3h+3
SECOND (FINAL) STEP:
Subtract 3h from both sides to get rid of the 3h on the right side.
</span>4h(-3h) = 3h+3 (-3h)
h = 3
Hope this helps, sorry if it's hard to understand :)
The answer would be the third one because you cannot change the denominator and you can only add the numerators
