Answer:
x = 7
y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
y + 12 = 3x - 5
5y - 4 = 3x - 5
So y + 12 = 5y - x
To solve the equation above, y =4
Sub y = 4,
x = 7
Answer:
Below in bold.
Step-by-step explanation:
I'll solve a few of them to illustrate the method:
a) 5x - (3x - 1) = x - 4
The aim is to get all the 'x' terms to one sides of the '=' and the numbers to the other side:
Distribute the negative over the 3x - 1 in the parentheses:
5x - 3x + 1 = x - 4 ( Note that -* -1 = + 1)
Now subtract 1 from both sides:
5x - 3x + 1 - 1 = x - 4 - 1
5x - 3x = x - 5
Now subtract x from both sides:
5x - 3x - x = x - x - 5.
2x - x = -5
x = -5.
(b) 3/5 x + 1 = 2/5 - 3x
We first get rid of the fractions by multiplying each term by 5:
5 * 3/5 x + 1*5 = 5 * 2/5 - 5*3x
3x + 5 = 2 - 15x
3x + 15x + 5 = 2 - 15x + 15x (adding 15x to both sides)
18x + 5 = 2 Subtract 5 from both sides:
18x + 5 - 5 = 2 - 5
18x = -3
Now we divide both sides by 18:
x = -3/18 = -1/6.
g) 0.3(6 + m) = 0.4(8 - m)
0.3 * 6 + 0.3* m = 0.4*8 + 0.4 * -m ( Distributing the 0.3 and 0.4 over the parentheses)
1.8 + 0.3m = 3.2 - 0.4m ( recall that + * - = -)
1.8 - 1.8 + 0.3m = 3.2 - 1.8 - 0.4m
0.3m = 1.4 - 0.4m
0.3m + 0.4m = 1.4 - 0.4m + 0.4m
0.7m = 1.4
m = 1/4/0.7
m = 2.
I hope this helps.
Answer:
12 months is one year so the expression is:
Step-by-step explanation:
2year = 2(X)
so you know one year 12 months you can put 12 on the x value
2 years = 2(12)
2 years = 24 months
Answer: 2 25 52
Step-by-step explanation: They used a base of 60
from <u>right to left</u> a.60⁰, b.60¹, c.60², etc.
As 60³ = 216000 > 8752, we should start with 60².
As 60² = 3600, 8752/3600 = 2,43, we use 2.60²
8752 - 2.60² = 8752 - 7200 = 1552
1552/60 = 25,87; we use 25.60
1552 - 25.60 = 1552 - 1500 = 52
∴ 8752 = 2 25 52
