Answer:What number must be multiplied by 3 to obtain 15? ... Example 11 A student solved the equation 5x - 3 = 4x + 2 and found an answer of x = 6. ... Example 12 3x = 6 and 2x + 1 = 5 are equivalent because in both cases x = 2 is a solution. ... + 3x = 7x + 2 - 4x can be changed to a simple equation x = 3, and the equation x = 3 is .

Which is a true statement?

julsineya [31]

B. <span>–4.37 < –1.63 is the true statement. -4.37 is less than -1.63
</span>
A. <span>–4.28 > –3.56 * should be less than
</span>C. <span>5.7 < 5.63 * should be greater than
</span>D. -13.90 > 4.63 *should be less than

In dealing with negative numbers, the greater the negative number is, the lesser its value. 4.37 is a greater number than 1.63 in its positive form, however, its negative form give 4.37 a lesser value than 1.63 in its negative form.

267 x 0.02 = 5.34
267 + 5.34 = 272.34

267 x 0.08 = 21.36
267 - 21.36 = 245.64

267 + 272.34 + 245.64 = $784.98

The Glitz Jewelry Kit contains round beads in 6 different colors plus 100 star-shaped beads.

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

False, it would actually be 106 beads. If this was a multiplication problem, that would also be false, because 6 times 100 is 600, not 350.

But let's attempt to make this statement true.

<u>First/Last step:</u><em> Find the missing beads.</em>

The missing beads are 144.

Why?

Because you must add 144 to reach 250, there is no other way but to multiply. In this case, because the key word is, "In all" we are adding.

Cynthia Besch wants to buy a rug for a room that is 1919 ft wide and 2727 ft long. She wants to leave a uniform strip of floor a

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

The dimension of the rug would be 17 ft × 9 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

length of the room = 27 ft.

width of the room = 19 ft.

suppose, she leaves a uniform strip of x ft. around the rug.

So,

The length of rug = (27-2x)ft.

Width of rug= (19-2x)ft.

∴ Area of the rug= length×width

$= (27-2x)(19-2x)$

$= 513-54x-38x+4x^2$

$= 513-92x+4x^2$

According to the question,

$513-92x+4x^2=153$

$513-92x+4x^2-153=0$ ( subtract 153 both sides)

$4x^2-92x+360=0$

$4(x^2-23x+90)=0$

$x^2-23x+90=0$

$x^2-(18+5)x+90=0$ ( Middle term splitting)

$x^2-18x-5x+90=0$

$x(x-18)-5(x-18)=0$

$(x-5)(x-18)=0$

$x-5=0$ or $x-18=0$ ( zero product property)

$x=5$ or $x=18$

if x=18, dimension would be negative ( Not possible)

Thus, x= 5

Hence,

length of rug= 27-10=17 ft.

width of rug= 19-10=9 ft.
