Numbers that are close in value to the actual numbers.
Answer:
<h2>y = 54 ✅</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
If the two numbers vary directly, we can use a proportion to find the missing value.
36/4 = y/6
4y = 216
Divide by 4
y = 54
Check
36/4 = 54/6
216 = 216 ✅
We need to express this statement into a equation:
First of all. We will walk through the statement step by step into a mathematical language, so:
1. The sum of five and x:
x + 5
2. Twice the sum of five and x:
2(x + 5)
3. Eight less than x:
(x-8)
Finally the whole statement is:
4. <span>Twice the sum of five and x is eight less than x:
</span>
2(x + 5) = (x-8)
2x + 10 = x - 8
x = -18
2 X 6 = 12
So, it would be 12 orange picks.
