Let the number be n.

Then n+5=34.
Subtracting 5 from both sides, n = 29.

The number is 29.

One positive number is 1/5 of another number the difference of the two numbers is 72 find the numbers

SpyIntel [72]

Let x be the lowest positive number Then the other number = 5x.

So 5x - x = 72

4x = 72

x = 18

So the numbers are 18 and 90 answer

(Quick please ) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Help me!!!!! find the surface area of the rectangular prism!!!!!! thank you

Aleks [24]

You can do this !

The rectangular prism has

   -- length = 10 cm
   -- width = 7 cm
   -- height = 3 cm.

-- The area of the top and bottom is (length x width) each.

-- The area of the left and right sides is (length x height) each.

-- The area of the front and back is (width x height) each.

There. I just laid out all the schmartz you need to answer this question.
The rest is all simple arithmetic, and you're perfectly capable of turning
the crank and getting the answer. You don't need anybody else to do
that part for you.

Don't forget your units. The area of each flat face is (cm) times (cm),
and that product will be some cm² , for area.

Sum of Angles in a Quadrilateral: 360

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Set up

75 + 120 + 90 + ∠4 = 360

Step 2: Solve

Add: 285 + ∠4 = 360
[Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 285 on both sides: ∠4 = 75

If a = 0.6 repeating and b = 0.75, then a x b = blank and a/b = blank

atroni [7]

Answer:

a*b = 1/2

a/ b = 8/9

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 0.66666 and b = 0.75

To multiply it we write the decimal numbers in fraction form

a= 0.666666...

Multiply by 10 on both sides

10 a = 6.66666...

a = 0.66666...

Subtract the second equation

9a = 6

divide by 9 on both sides

$a=\frac{6}{9}=\frac{2}{3}$

so 0.6666 = 2/3

Now we convert 0.75 into fraction form

$0.75=\frac{0.75}{1}$

Multiply top and bottom by 100 to remove decimal

$\frac{75}{100} = \frac{3}{4}$

so 0.75 is 3/4

a= 2/3 and b = 3/4

$a*b = \frac{2}{3} * \frac{3}{4} = \frac{6}{12} = \frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{a}{b} = \frac{\frac{2}{3}}{\frac{3}{4}} = \frac{2}{3} * \frac{4}{3} =\frac{8}{9}$

Katie gives Maggie half of her pencils. Maggie keeps 5 pencils and gives the rest to Jamil. A. Write an expression for the numbe

Alexandra [31]

Here's what I mean when I write x/2 JUST IN CASE.

а.

Let the total number of pencils be x, then this implies that Maggie received x/2 pencils from Katie. Maggie keeps 5 and give the rest to Jamil, this means

that Jamil receives

x/2-5 pencils.

b. Expression of pencils given to Jamil is: x/2-5

Substitute x=16 in this expression: x/2-5

Simplify and evaluate: = 8-5= 3

Maggie gives 3 pencils to Jamil.

c. Expression of pencils given to Jamil is: x/2-5 to

Equate this expression with 1 to form an equation and solve for x all, the total

number of pencils if Jamil received 1 pencil:

x/2 - 5 = 1

Solve for x:

x = 2(1+ 5)

Evaluate:

x = 2(6) = 12

Katie had 12 pencils if Jamil received 1 pencil.

RESULT

a. Expression of number of pencils given to Jamil is x/2-5, where x is total number of pencils.

b. Maggie gives 3 pencils to Jamil.

c. Katie had 12 pencils if Jamil received 1 pencil.
