60/100 = 8/x
Multiply both sides by 100
60 = 800/x
Multiply both sides by x
60x = 800
Divide both sides by 60
x = 13.3333333333333
0.3 • x = answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate x for -2-5x=-16:





Isolate y for -3y+14=26:



Answer:
12 pieces
Step-by-step explanation:
Total length of the board = 48 in
It must be divided into 4 pieces of equal length
This means, there will be 3 cut to have 4 pieces
Each cut will cause a waste of 3/16 in.
Total waste = 3 cut × 3/16 in
= (3*3)/16
= 9/16 in
Length of board remaining = Total length of the board - Total waste
= 48 - 9/16
= (768-9)/16
= 759/16 in
How long will each piece be after the cuts are made?
Length of each piece after the cut = Length of board remaining / 4
= 759/16 ÷ 4
= 759/16 × 1/4
= 759/64
= 11.859375
Approximately 12 pieces to the nearest whole number
Answer:
Option D: 6x-14 is the correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Length of the box = L = 2x-2
Width of the box = W = x-5
Perimeter is defined by the sum of length of all sides of the box.
Perimeter of the box = P = 2L + 2W
Perimeter of box = 2(2x-2) + 2(x-5)
Perimeter = 4x-4+2x-10
Perimeter = 6x-14
The perimeter of the box is 6x-14.
Hence,
Option D: 6x-14 is the correct answer.
5x - y³ = 135x - y³ = 13
The answer can be obtained by simply putting the ordered pair into the equations. First (2 , -9)
5(2) - (9)³ = 135(5) - (-9)³ = 13
10 + 729 = 675 + 729 = 13
739 = 1404 = 13
This is not true. Therefore this is not a solution
Second (3,-6)
5(3) - (-6)³ = 135(5) - (-6)³ = 13
231 = 891 = 13
This is also not true
Therefore, neither ordered pair is a solution.
