I think I have the diagram right.
Let ADB = x, and then BDC = x+32.
x+x+32 = 90
2x = 58
x = 29 = ADB
so BDC = 61
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
if the ratio is 8:11 then 40:x
Cross multiply
8 40
11 x
8x=440
And divide by 8
x=55. She has 55 books
Answer:
The variable 8. Equation is 16 + 12x = 112.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that she spent $16 dollars on magazines, so we can put it in the equation (16 + x= ?). We also know that the total is $112, so we can also add that (16+ x= 112). We don't know how many books she got, but we do know how much they cost (16 + 12x=112. So that makes the books the variable (X).
To find the variable we need to take out the magazines from the price. 112-16=96. Now we're left with 12x=96. Now all we have to do is divide 96 by 12, which equals 8.
Sorry everything is so long, I tried to make it short as possible
