Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2x = 1/7x + 5
1/2x - 1/7x = 5
7/14x - 2/14x = 5
5/14x = 5
x = 5 * 14/5
x = 14
Answer:
168
Step-by-step explanation:
24 times 3 is 72 then also 24 times 4 is 96 add that and get 168
Well for 5 movies, you do f(5) which is 32. So take 12 away from that because she already has 12, means that she still needs $20.
Since we know 14, but we don't know the other number, we use a variable. To do that, we look at the problem, then we figure out the unknown. The unknown is: A number. We know 14. Since "Triple" means 3, we can put the exponent 3 by X.
Therefore, the answer is .
Answer:
one tin of cheese $23
one tin of caramel $27
Step-by-step explanation:
let 'x' = cost of cheese tin
let 'y' = cost of caramel tin
10x + 8y = 446
22x + 11y = 803
i multiplied the first equation by -11 and the second by 8 to eliminate the 'y' terms
-110x - 88y = -4906
+ <u>176x + 88y = 6424</u>
66x = 1518
x = 1518 / 66
x = 23
find 'y': 10(23) + 8y = 446
230 + 8y = 446
8y = 216
y = 27
