Number of books each of them have:
Jaime: x
Grant: x - 6
Ky: 3 (x - 6)
There are 176 books in total, so we can write it down as:
176 = x + x - 6 + 3 (x - 6)
176 = x + x - 6 + 3 * x + 3 * (-6)
176 = x + x - 6 + 3x - 18
176 = 2x - 6 + 3x - 18
176 = 5x - 24 / + 24 (both sides)
5x = 200 / ÷ 5 (both sides)
x = 40
Doublecheck:
Jamie: 40
Grant: 40 - 6 = 34
Ky: 3 (40 - 6) = 3 * 34 = 102
102 + 34 + 40 = 176, so it's correct :)
Answer:
10t+3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
4 and 2
Step-by-step explanation:
4x4+2x2
16+4=20
Dividing the number of tires that should be installed per day which is 400 by the number of working hours which is 8 will give us 50 tires per hour. Assuming that the same mistake will take toll on the workers such that they will have 1 tire mistakenly installed in an hour, they will have 8 erroneous tires in a day. Multiplying this by 5 to make the answer per week will give 40. Out of the 400 x 5 = 2000 tires. The answer would be 2000 - 40 which is equal to 1940. The assumption must be valid.
Explanation:
The line of reflection is the perpendicular bisector of the segment joining a point with its reflected image.
___
The segment joining a point with its reflection is as short as possible consistent with the requirement that the reflected point be the same distance from the line that the original is. That means it is perpendicular to the line of reflection. Since the distance from that line is the same on either side, the line of reflection bisects the joining segment.
