J=3c, c=2b/3, b=27 so

j=3(2b)/3

j=2b, since b=27

j=2(27)

j=54  

So Jim has 54 comic books.

To solve: Work backwards.

A number is given for Bob: 27
We can make equations according to the relations between the three people to find how many books Jim has.

Bob: 27
Charles: 2/3(Bob's value)
Joe: 3(Charle's value)

Solve for Charles first: 2/3(27)= 18 books

Then solve for Joe: 3(18)=54

Answer: Joe has 54 books.

Given f(x)=22x+12, find f(7)
Zarrin [17]

Substitute x for 7.

f(x)=22x+12

f(7)=22(7)+12

Multiply first, then complete addition.

f(7)=154+12

f(7)=166

Can somebody help me on 23 and 24, it’s geometry

Question 23:

x = 4

DE = 44

Question 24:

x = 25

SE = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

As RS is the perpendicular bisector of DE, it will divide DE in two equal parts DS and SE

<u>Question number 23:</u>

Given

DS = 3x+10

SE = 6x-2

As the two segments are equal:

DS = SE\\3x+10 = 6x-2

Subtracting 10 from both sides

3x+10-10 = 6x-2-10\\3x = 6x-12

subtracting 6x from both sides

3x -6x = 6x-6x-12\\-3x = -12

Dividing both sides by -3

\frac{-3x}{-3} = \frac{-12}{-3}\\x = 4

Now

DS = 3x+10\\= 3(4)+10\\= 12+10\\=22

And

SE = 6x-2\\= 6(4)-2\\= 24 - 2\\=22\\DE = DS+SE\\= 22+22\\=44

<u>Question No 24:</u>

Given

DS = x+3

DE = 56

We know that:

DS = \frac{1}{2}DE\\x+3 = \frac{56}{2}\\x + 3 = 28\\x = 28-3\\x = 25

So

DS = 25+3 = 28

As DS is 28, SE will also be 28

Hence,

Question 23:

x = 4

DE = 44

Question 24:

x = 25

SE = 28
