2x-3=55
You solve the equation as follows:
2x-3=55
-3 -3
2x=52
/2 /2
x= 26
The number is 26

2x29=58-3 =55
3-2x (x=29) =55
29x2=58-3

The minimum of this graph is the focus of the parabola. I'm not sure with the maximum though but I think it doesn't have a maximum because the y value of the parabola will extend infinitely upward.

True [87]

Answer:

The ratio between won and lost is $\frac{7}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The question in English is

A table tennis team won 21 games and lost 12 games, what is the ratio between won and lost?

Let

x ------> the number of games won

y -----> the number of games lost

we have

$x=21\ games$

$y=12\ games$

we know that

To find the ratio divide the number of games won by the number of games lost

$\frac{x}{y}$

substitute the values

$\frac{21}{12}$

Simplify

$\frac{7}{4}$

Answer:

1.5x=6

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

The area is length times width so 1.5 times x is the correct equation. Make x equal to one by dividing both sides by 1.5. x=6/1.5. Simplify this to get x=4.
