Step-by-step explanation:
eight times the difference of 2 and a number would be 8 × (2-x)
Hi there!
To solve is pretty easy. First, simplify.
21/4=(1/2x+3x) -> Combine Like Terms
21/4=7/2x
FLIP
7/2x=21/4
Multiply both sides by 2/7.
(2/7)*(7/2x)=(2/7)*(21/4)
x = 2/3
Hope this helps!
Answer: Jeremy drove 84 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of miles that Brenda drove.
If Jeremy drove twice
as far as Brenda, it means that the distance covered by Jeremy would be 2x miles
When they stopped after some time, they were already
126 miles apart. This means that the total distance covered by both of them is 126 miles. Therefore,
x + 2x = 126
3x = 126
x = 126/3
x = 42 miles
The number of miles that Jeremy drove is
42 × 2 = 84 miles
1,038/12= 86.5833333 86x12=1,032
1,039-1,032=7 left over So you’ll need 87 boxes
Its the y=3x2one pretty sure
