3 times the sum of 1/3 of a number and 8 is 11

1 answer:

8 0

Let the number be x.

1/3 of the number = (1/3)*x = x/3

Sum of it and 8 = (x/3) + 8

3 times the sum = 3*((x/3) + 8) = 11

3*((x/3) + 8) = 11

3*x/3 + 3*8 = 11

x + 24 = 11

x = 11 - 24

x = -13

The number is - 13.

I hope this helps.

You can put the 2 circles together to get 1 circle
so basically we just find

area of rectangle taht is 8ft by 18ft
and area of ciecle with disameter of 8

area rectangle=18 times 8=144 square feet

area of ciecle=pir^2
d/2=r, 8/2=4
area=pi4^2=16pi, pi=3.14 so then
50.24

toal is rectangle+circles=144+50.24=194.24 suare feet
rounded
194 square feet

Jamar is four times as old as Josh. In 20 years he will be twice as old as Josh. How old is Jamar?

Juliette [100K]

Simultaneous equations
Jamar=J
Josh=j
4J=j
20+J=2j
Then
4J=j
-4 (J)=-4(2j-20)
So
0=-7j+80
7j=80
j=80÷7
