Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
hello :
X/2 + 3/8 = 1
X/2 + 3/8 -3/8= 1-3/8
X/2 = 5/3 means : 3x=10 so : x=10/3
X= # students who got lower grades
2x+3= # students with grade A
STEP 1:
Add the two sets above equal to 24.
x + (2x + 3)= 24
combine like terms
3x + 3= 24
subtract 3 from both sides
3x= 21
divide both sides by 3
x= 7 (# students lower than A)
STEP 2:
substitute x value from step 1 to find # grade A students
=2x + 3
=2(7) + 3
=14 + 3
=17 (# grade A students)
CHECK:
x + (2x + 3)= 24
7 + 2(7) + 3= 24
7 + 14 + 3= 24
24= 24
ANSWER: There were 17 students with grade A.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
x = 8
y = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 4x − 11
x + y = 29
Solve for x:
x + y = 29
x + 4x − 11 = 29
5x − 11 = 29
5x = 40
x = 8
Solve for y:
y = 4x − 11
y = 4 × 8 − 11
y = 21
Her investment was $4500. To get this, you take 1890 and divide it by 7, giving you 270. This is 6% of 4500. To prove this, you would multiply 4500 by .06, giving the answer of 270, which can then be multiplied by 7 (years) to equal $1890.
