Just use the distributing property and combine like terms. There isn’t a definite answer since it is an expression.
Answer:
Final answer is 1/3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Question says that Mrs Jenkins picked some tomatoes from her garden. She used 5/9 of the tomatoes to make pasta sauce. After that she used 3/4 of the remainder to make a salad. Now we need to find about what fraction of the tomatoes did Mrs Jenkins use to make the salad.
As she used 5/9 of the tomatoes to make pasta sauce.
Now remaining amount of tomatoes = 1- 5/9 = 9/9 -5/9 = 4/9
Then she used 3/4 of the remainder to make a salad. So fraction of the tomatoes did Mrs Jenkins use to make the salad = (4/9)(3/4)=12/36=1/3
Hence final answer is 1/3.
Answer:
x = -24
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x + 7) = 2x - 3
3 * x = 3x
3 * 7 = 21
3x + 21 = 2x - 3
-21 -21
3x = 2x -24
-2x -2x
x = -24
Answer:
9x + 3 = 7x + 19
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Jeffrey set up chairs for a meeting.
He arranged the chairs in 9 equal rows but had 3 chairs left over.
Let x be the number of chairs. So,
9x+3 .....(1)
Then he arranged the chairs in 7 equal rows but had 19 chairs left over. So,
7x+19 ......(2)
From equation (1) and (2),
9x+3 = 7x+19
9x-7x = 19-3
2x = 16
x = 8
Hence, the correct option is (b).
90 divided by 2= 45 so x=45
2•45=90
So, for the next one y=60 because 90+90=180
3•60-2•45=90
