Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
first, we would set up an equation. let 3x-4 represent "four less than a number tripled". "a number" would be represented by x. let x+10 represent "the same number increased by 10".
set 3x-4 and x+10 equal to each other:
3x-4=x+10
next, we would solve this equation for x. first we would get the x together on one side of the equation. we would do this by subtracting x from both sides to remove it from the right side of the equation:
2x-4=10
then, we would get the 2x by itself. we would do this by adding 4 to both sides:
2x=14
finally, we would divide each side of the equation by 2 to find x:
x=7.
The number is 7.
Find the percentage. 5 percent of 10 is 0.5. 50 cents.
25 X 2(AMOUNT OF 5 PERCENT OF A DOLLAR IN A DOLLAR) = 50.
50 hours
C. 3x + 7 because you can factor out the other 3.
a. 16+4x=4(4+X)
b. 25x+30y=5(5x+6y)
d. 40x-30y = 5(8x-6y)
hope this helps!
Lets find how much flour we need for just one serving.
2 2/3 ÷ 6
8/3 ÷ 6
8/3 * 1/6
8/18
4/9 cup of flour per serving
If we triple the recipe (6 * 3 = 18), we will have a total of 18 servings. Multiply the amount of flour we got for one serving to 18 servings.
4/9 * 18/1
72/9
8 cups of flour for 18 servings
Best of Luck!
