Answer: Oh the answer is 30.00
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
m - 10
Step-by-step explanation:
7 plus = 7 +
The sum of m and -17 = m + (-17)
7 + (m + -17)
We can get rid of the parentheses
7 + m + -17
Combine like terms
7 + -17 = -10
m + -10
Get rid of the addition sign
m - 10
He used 53 pounds. I got this by using two equations.
a+b=117
and
5.8a+4.1b= 569.8
I took the first equation and subtracted 'b' so the equation looked like a=117-b.
I then plugged in 117-b into the second equation, so it ended up looking like this:
5.8 (117-b)=569.8
5.8 times 117 is 678.6. And 5.8 times negative b is negative 5.8b.
The equation now looks like this:
678.6-5.8b+4.1b=569.8
Add like terms
678.6-1.7b=569.8
Then subtract 678.6 from both sides
-1.7b= -108.8
divide each side by -1.7
you get b= 64.
But because you are looking for how many pounds for a, subtract 64 from 117. You get 53. 53 is the answer.
7.4 rounded to the nearest tenth is 7
