Even though we don't know the number yet, we need to give it some kind of label
so that we can work with it. We can call it anything. I'd like to call it ' G '.
The number we're looking for is ' G '.
Half of it is 1/2 G
The sum of that and 6 is 1/2 G + 6
Ten times that is 10 (1/2 G + 6)
The question says that's 8.
So 10 (1/2 G + 6) = 8
Divide each side by 10 : 1/2 G + 6 = 0.8
Subtract 6 from each side: 1/2 G = - 5.2
Multiply each side by 2 : G = - 10.4
That seems like a weird answer. We should check it.
The number: -10.4
Half the number: - 5.2
The sum of half the number and 6: -5.2 + 6 = +0.8
Ten times that sum: 8
Yep ! By golly, sho nuff, dV-dT and E to the X !
Everything checks out, and the mystery number is - 10.4
Nah this is easy. LQM is a rough estimate of 4050, which every angle is 70 degrees because it’s an acute triangle
<u>Answer:</u> The minuend is 20000
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
To calculate the minuend, we use the equation:

We are given:
Difference between the two numbers = 7194
Subtraend = 12806
Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the minuend is 20000
Answer:
answer a
Step-by-step explanation:
< 
- Let's isolate
on one side of the equation. Ignore the inequality for now. We'll deal with that later.

- Now, I'm going to bring back the inequality or < symbol. I only removed it when simplifying and isolating
, but if this confuses you, just do your math and keep the inequality there.
< 
- On a number line, this would include every number <em>less than </em>
, due to the < (less than) symbol. This disqualifies answers b and d because they are showing every number <em>greater than </em>
. But, how do we decide between answers a and c? - If a line has point at its beginning,
, then that means that every number <em>less than or equal to</em> [ ≤ ] 6 is being shown, but our equation just says <em>less than </em>[ < ] 6, so answer a is our correct answer.
