X + y = 10
x - y = 2
add the equations together
2x = 12
x = 6
6 + y = 10
y = 3
Answer:
27
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
b1 = 13
b2 = ?
h = 6
Area = 120
Formula
Area = (b1 + b2) * h/2 Multiply by 2
2Area = (b1 + b2)*h Divide by h
2Area/h = b1 + b2 Subtract b1 from both sides
2Area/h - b1 = b2
Solution
2*120 / 6 - 13 = b2
40 - 13 = b2
b2 = 27
It is always handy to solve an equation in the form that finds the unknown on one side. It makes the solution much easier.
Ratio 5:4
Total shares = 5+4 = 9
then to find for 1 share = 54/9 = 6
So Sam share = 6 x 5 = 30
Bethan share = 6 x 4 = 24
Poof: 30+24 = 54
Answer:
x = 2
Explanation:
2(x+2)-5=3(x-1)
1) Use distributive property (multiply the 2 by x+2 and the 3 by x-1)
2x+4-5=3x-3
2) Combine like terms
2x-1=3x-3
3) Subtract 2x on both sides
-1=x-3
4) Add 3 on both sides
2=x

You would turn 15% into a decimal. Which would be .15, and then do .15 times $29.99 which is $29.84. Then you would subtract the $29.99 minus the $29.84
