Answer: x = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
9x - 18 = 7x + 30
9x - 7x = 30 + 18
2x = 48
x = 48/2 = 24
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
It's algebra really, basically make a system of equations.
1b+5j=t
3b+2j=2t
I'm gonna solve the first one for buckets so we have it in terms of jars.
b+5j=t
b=t-5j
Now I plug that into the other equation
3b+2j=2t
3(t-5j)+2j=2t
3t-15j+2j=2t
Now, since it wants how many jars are in one tub, I want to solve it so there's 1t on one side of the equation and all js on the other. or it other words solve for t.
3t-15j+2j=2t
3t-13j = 2t
3t = 2t+13j
t = 13j
So it takes 13 jars to make one tub, or one jar is 1/13 of a tub. You could then plug that in to one of the equations and find how much a bucket is.
Answer:
39. r = 13.4
40. m = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
39. Given the equation, 
, to solve for r, the following are the correct steps to take to arrive at the solution:
(given)
Add 0.8 to both sides of the equation (addition property of equality)
(this is where the error occurred.)
40. The correct steps to take in solving the equation, 
is as follows:
(given)
Multiply both sides by 3 (multiplication property of equality)
(this is where the error occurred. This is what we should have at this line/step)
(dividing both sides by -1)
Tan(30deg) = n/rt(3)
1/rt(3) = n/rt(3)—> n=1
sin(30deg) = 1/m
1/2=1/m—> m=2
Thus m=2 ,n=1
