Answer:
16 = 3x
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter is found by adding up the 3 sides
P = x+x+x
P =3x
We know the perimeter is 16
16 = 3x
One person gets 3 10ths of it and the other gets 7 10ths
Answer:
y = 1/3x -2
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation for slope intercept form is y= mx + b.
m is the slope and b is where the line crosses the y-axis which is called the y-intercept.
to find the y-intercept plug in a coordinate on the line (6,0)
0 = 1/3(6) + b
then solve for b by first multiplying 1/3 by 6
0 = 2 + b
subtract 2 from both sides
-2 = b
and then you can plug b into the equation
y = 1/3x - 2
Answer:
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
Using elimination method.
Add equation 1 to equation 2
x + y = 11
x - y = 7
---------------
2x + 0 = 18
Divide both sides by 2
2x = 18
---- ----
2 2
x = 9
Answer:
40 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of gallons that would completely fill the bathtub be represented by N.
Since 12 gallons of water gives 30% of the number of gallons to fill the bathtub, then;
30% of N = 12
x N = 12
30N = 12 x 100
30N = 1200
divide both sides by 30,
N = 
= 40
The number of gallons that would completely fill the bathtub is 40 gallons.
