Answer:

y = 40 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be y

10 more than 2 times a number = 10 + 2×y

equal to 2 times the number plus 50. = 2 × y + 50

10 + 2y = 2y + 50

combine the like terms

2y - 2y =50 - 10

0 = 40

the number supposes be 40 but the number is represented by 0

i think some thing is missing in your question

y supposes be 40 not 0 = 40

Hope this helps!

I have 7 hundreds blocks, 5 tens blocks, and 8 ones blocks. I use my blocks to model two 3-digit numbers. What could my two numb

lawyer [7]

There 7 blocks of hundreds which means each such block is equivalent to 100.
There are 5 blocks of tens, which means each such block is equivalent to 10.
There are 8 blocks of ones, which means each such block is equivalent to 1.

The total of these blocks will be = 7(100) + 5(10) + 8(10) = 758

We can make several two 3-digit numbers from these blocks. An example is listed below:

Example:
Using 3 hundred block, 2 tens blocks and 4 ones block to make one number and remaining blocks to make the other number. The remaining blocks will be 4 hundred blocks, 3 tens blocks and 4 ones blocks
The two numbers we will make in this case are:

1st number = 3(100) + 2(10) + 4(1) = 324
2nd number = 4(100) + 3(10) + 4(1) = 434

The sum of these two numbers is = 324 + 434 = 758
i.e. equal to the original sum of all blocks.

This way changing the number of blocks in each place value, different 3 digit numbers can be generated.

THE NUMBER 1-10 ARE IN A BAG, YOU TAKE 2 OUT WITHOUT REPLACEMENT. WHAT IS THE PROBABILITY OF DRAWING THE NUMBER 7 THE FIRST TIME

ehidna [41]

Answer:

1 / 18

Step-by-step explanation:

PROBABILITY OF DRAWING THE NUMBER 7 THE FIRST TIME = Number of favorable outcome / Total number of outcomes

Favorable outcome = 1

Total number of outcome (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10) = 10

PROBABILITY OF DRAWING THE NUMBER 7 THE FIRST TIME = 1 / 10

PROBABILITY OF DRAWING AN EVEN NUMBER THE SECOND TIME = Number of favorable outcome / Total number of outcomes

Favorable outcome (2,4,6,8,10) = 5

Total number of outcomes (1,2,3,4,5,6,8,9,10) = 9

PROBABILITY OF DRAWING AN EVEN NUMBER THE SECOND TIME = 5/9

PROBABILITY OF DRAWING THE NUMBER 7 THE FIRST TIME AND THEN DRAWING AN EVEN NUMBER = 1 / 10 * 5 / 9 = 1 / 18

What is the value of x? enter your answer into the box.

poizon [28]

Answer:

x = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔBRD and ΔQCD are similar, hence the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

$\frac{BD}{QD}$ = $\frac{RD}{CD}$

note that BD = 26 + 39 = 65

substitute values into the ratio equation

$\frac{65}{39}$ = $\frac{x+18}{x}$ ( cross- multiply )

65x = 39(x + 18)

65x = 39x + 702 ( subtract 39x from both sides )

26x = 702 ( divide both sides by 26 )

x = 27
