To do this you need to work backwards. if you note the number as 'n' you can put
7n = 5600
to find n you simply divide both sides by 7 getting
n = 5600/7
n = 800
For
1. its
D=Days
H=Hours
M=Minutes
3d+5h+15m
3d=72h+5h
72h+5h=77h
77h+15m=77h.15m
But i only have this one right now sorry :P
ANSWER:
x = 10 / 3
y = 0
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
We will be using simultaneous equations to solve this problem. Let's first establish the two equations which we will be using.
Equation No. 1 -
- 6x - 14y = - 20
Equation No. 2 -
- 3x - 7y = - 10
First, we will make ( x ) the subject in the first equation and simplify accordingly.
Equation No. 1 -
- 6x - 14y = - 20
- 6x = - 20 + 14y
x = ( - 20 + 14y ) / - 6
x = ( - 10 + 7y ) / - 3
From this, we will make ( y ) the subject in the second equation and substitute the value of ( x ) from the first equation into the second equation to solve for ( y ) accordingly.
Equation No. 2 -
- 3x - 7y = - 10
- 7y = - 10 + 3x
- 7y = - 10 + 3 [ ( - 10 + 7y ) / - 3 ]
- 7y = - 10 + [ ( - 30 + 21y ) / - 3 ]
- 7y = - 10 + ( 10 - 7y )
- 7y = - 7y
- 7y + 7y = 0
0y = 0
y = 0
Using this, we will substitute the value of ( y ) from the second equation into the first equation to solve for ( x ) accordingly.
x = ( - 10 + 7y ) / - 3
x = [ - 10 + 7 ( 0 ) ] / - 3
x = [ - 10 + 0 ] / - 3
x = - 10 / - 3
x = 10 / 3
20% is equal to 0.2
0.2 times 26.40 is equal to 5.28
26.40 minus 5.28 is equal to 21.12
