Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Let x represent the number from the sentence.
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x) + 2(1/x) = 20/3
2x + 2/x = 20/3
multiply both sides of the equation by 3x
6x + 6 = 20x
6x - 20x + 6 = 0
6x - 18x - 2x + 6 = 0
6x(x-3 -2(x-3) = 0
(6x-2 = 0 or x-3 = 0
6x = 2 or x = 3
x = 2/6
x = 1/3
Since x represented the number
Therefore x = 1/3 or 3
Answer:
x°+2x°+(x-24)°=180°
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of of the interior angles of all triangles add up to 180°
Adding x°, 2x°, and (x-24)° <em>will</em> equal 180
Therefore, an equation that can be used to solve for the missing angles is: x°+2x°+(x-24)°=180°
Let's break this up:
let x = the number
"when I triple my number" is the same as
3x
"and add five" is the same as
+5
We combine it to get
3x+5
"I get twenty-six"
=26
combine to get
3x+5=26
Now we just solve:
subtract 5 from both sides to get
3x=21
divide by 3 to get
x=7
