Answer:

x=14

Step-by-step explanation:

45 = 3 (x + 1)

Distribute the 3 to both terms in the parentheses

45 = 3x +3

Subtract 3 from each side

45-3 = 3x+3-3

42 = 3x

Divide each side by 3

42/3 = 3x/3

14 =x

24.5 is 33 1/3% of what number?
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer: 73.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The percent <em>33 1/3% </em>represents 1/3 of 100%. We can multiply 33 1/3% by 3 and get 100%. We need to find what 24.5 is 33 1/3% of.

Since 1/3 x 3 = 100%, then 24.5 x 3 must equal the number we're trying to find.

24.5 x 3 = 73.5.

Therefore, 24.5 is 33 1/3% of 73.5. I hope this helps, and good luck!

Zach and Ginny are building model cars. Ginny's car is 2 more than 3 times the length of Zach's car. The sum of the lengths of b
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

x+(3x+2)=30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the length of Zach's car

y ----> the length of Ginny's car

we know that

The sum of the lengths of both cars is 30 inches

so

x+y=30 ----> equation A

Ginny's car is 2 more than 3 times the length of Zach's car

so

y=3x+2 ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

x+(3x+2)=30
