If you would like to solve the equation 3 * a + b = 54, when b = 9, you can calculate this using the following steps:

b = 9
3 * a + b = 54
3 * a + 9 = 54
3 * a = 54 - 9
3 * a = 45     /3
a = 45/3
a = 15

The correct result would be 15.

Tom and Jerry have to stuff and seal 50 envelopes for a new marketing campaign. Jerry can stuff and seal 7
jekas [21]

Answer:

It takes them 7minutes to finish 50env

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that jerry can stuff 7 in 2min and tom can do 4 per min, so 8 for every 2min.

So 8+7=15env for every 2min    7.5/min  

15+15=30+15=45

50=15x/2     50*2=15x      100=15x     100/15=x x=6.67 then rounded it to 7min

What is the volume of this right triangular prism?
jeyben [28]
I’m not sure but i think it’s 72 cm3 because you calculate the volume by multiplying the length (8) the width (3) and the height (6)for a rectangle and since this is half a rectangle you have to divide it by two : 3*6*8=144; 144:2=72
