Answer:
Equation:(4 2/5)/2/5=? ; estimate: a
little more than 10 magazines; answer:
11 magazines in the stack.
Step-by-step explanation:
if you isolate y in the top equation to get y=5x+6 then you can substiture y for 5x+6 in the bottom equation because thats what y equals
as of now you have -3x+6(5x+6)=-12 but if you use the distrubite property you would get -3x+30x+36=-12
then if you subtract 36 from both sides you would get -3x+30x=-48 then combine like terms to get 27x=-48 then divide both sides by 27 to get 
or x≈1.8
Answer:
There are 60 monkeys in the Zoo
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are asked to calculate the number of monkeys in a Zoo given some information to use.
Let’s have the total number of monkeys be m.
60% are going monkeys. This means number of young monkeys is 0.6m.
The number of baby and old monkeys is obviously 0.4m.
Ratio of baby to old monkeys is 3:1. This means if we splitter 0.4m into 4, number of baby monkeys is 0.3m while number of old monkeys is 0.1m
Now, subtracting the number of baby monkeys from young monkeys give a total of 18 monkeys.
Let’s project this mathematically;
This means ;
0.6m - 0.3m = 18
0.3m = 18
m = 18/0.3
m = 60
There are 60 monkeys in the zoo
4x - 3(x + 5) > 7 - 4(x + 6) |use distributive property; a(b + c) = ab + ac
4x - 3x - 15 > 7 - 4x - 24 |combine items
x - 15 > -4x - 17 |add 15 to both sides
x > -4x - 2 |add 4x to both sides
5x > -2 |divide both sides by 5
x > - 2/5
