A) 264 11/2 *48
B) 66 pounds of beef needed .25*264
C) 66 pounds
Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
A)
The question tells us that
y + z = 180
And
y=3x+20
z=x
So we put them in the first formula:
y + z = 180
(3x + 20) + x = 180
Add and get x to one side:
4x + 20 = 180
4x + 20 - 20 = 180-20
4x = 160
Divide both sides by 4
x = 40
B)
Put x back in to equation to get size of each angle:
Y =3x +20
Y=3(40)+20
Y=120+20
Y=140
Z=x
Z=40
Verify: y+z=180
140+40=180
180=180
Answer:
x = 3, the error is that the -2x should be added.
Step-by-step explanation:
The -2x should be added to the left side.
3x - 7 = -2x + 8
3x + 2x = 8 + 7
5x = 15
x =3
