Answer:
Jake is 9, and Jake's dad is 43.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, let's start off by putting a variable for Jack's age, A.
We know that Jack's father is 2 less than 5 times, so we can write his as 5x -2.
Now let's make an equation:
52 = x + 5x - 2
We need to isolate the x-values so we need to add 2 on both sides:
54= x + 5x
No we need to add the like terms:
54 = 6x
Finally, we just divide by 6 on each side.
Now we know X = 9 but we're not done yet :)
So because Jake's dad is almost 5 times as much, we first multiply Jack's age by 5. We get 45 but we need to subtract 2 which leaves us with 43.
I really don’t know I’m just tryna get points but sorry
So we need to convert 0.75 feet to inches.
0.75 feet = 9 inches
Then we divide 9 by how many hours are in a day: 24
9/24 = 0.375
The raindrop vine can grow up to 0.375 inches per hour.
Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
We have an original price p
We mark them up by 50%
p + p*50%
Changing to decimal form
p+.50p = 1.5p
The new price is 60 dollars
1.5p = 60
Divide each side by 1.5
1.5p/1.5 = 60/1.5
p =40
The original price is 40
