Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
From the picture attached,
Addition of the blocks in first row is 60
a + a + a + 12 = 60
3a + 12 = 60
3a = 60 - 12
3a = 48
a = 16
For second row,
(b + 5) + (b + 5) + (b + 5) + (b + 5) = 60
4(b + 5) = 60
b + 5 = 15
b = 10
For third row,
(a + b) + c = (b + 5) + (b + 5) + (b + 5)
a + b + c = 3(b + 5)
16 + 10 + c = 3(10 + 5) [Since, a = 16 and b = 10}
26 + c = 45
c = 45 - 26
c = 19
For fourth row,
3c + d = 60
3(19) + d = 60
57 + d = 60
d = 60 - 57
d = 3
You can use a number line to add and subtract
9. Let x equal the number
Two less than a number is
x - 2
Is more than 15 is
> 15
Put them together for
x-2 > 15
Now solve
x-2 > 15
x > 17
10. Let x equal a number
Seven more than a number is
x+ 7
Is less than or equal to 27 is
<= 27
Put them together for
x + 7 <= 27
Now solve
x+ 7 <= 27
x <= 20
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The big triangle and small triangles are similar so their corresponding sides are in proportion.
x/15 = 15/9
x= 15*15/9
x=25
