290 divided by 10(value of a dime)= 29
answer is 29 dimes
Y and x are directly proportional, as stated by hypothesis. Let's use the rule of three to find y when x = 8.
x=5 --> y=12
x=8 --> y=?
? = (8*12)/5 = 96/5 = 19.2
So y directly varies with x, and y=12 when x = 5, then y=19.2 when x=8.
Hope this Helps! :D
7x = -36+10x
X=12
You minus the 10 from 7 (7-10=-3) (-36/-3) gives you 12
Let vons market receive x loaves. Then savemart received x+12 loaves and Ralphs received x + 12 + 6 = x + 18 loaves, Therefore:-
x + x + 12 + x + 18 = 180
3x + 30 = 180
3x = 150
x = 150/3 = 50
So vons received 50, savemart received 62 and ralph's received 68 loves. Answer
Answer:
The two parallel sides a and b are 17 cm and 23 cm respectively
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a trapezium = {(a+b)/2} h
Where
h = height = 18 cm
a = parallel side 1 = x
b = parallel side 2 = x + 6
Area of a trapezium = {(a+b)/2} h
360 = {(x + x + 6) / 2} 18
360 = { (2x + 6) / 2} 18
360 = (2x + 6) 9
360 = 18x + 54
Subtract 54 from both sides
360 - 54 = 18x
306 = 18x
Divide both sides by 18
x = 306 / 18
= 17
x = 17 cm
a = parallel side 1 = x
x = 17 cm
b = parallel side 2 = x + 6
x + 6
= 17 + 6
= 23 cm
