you need to move the decimal 10 places to the left to get it between the 3 and 9
so it would be 3.994 x 10^10
214.5
11x22=242
11x5/2=17.5
242-17.5=214.5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Declaration
Let Heather's number of messages = x
Let Eric's number of messages = x + 9
Let Chang's number of messages = 3(x +9)
Equation
x + x + 9 + 3(x + 9) = 116
Solution
x + x + 9 + 3(x + 9) = 116 Remove the brackets
x + x + 9 + 3x + 27 = 116 Combine like terms
x + x + 3x + 9 + 27 = 116
5x + 36 = 116 Subtract 36 from both sides
5x + 36 - 36 = 116 - 36 Combine
5x = 80 Divide both sides by 5
5x/5 = 80/5
x = 16
Answer
Heather = 16
Eric = 16 + 9 = 25
Chang = 3*25 = 75
If the unit price was $1 or more, the price would be $12 or more
Ayanna is 17 and Brittany is 14.
To find this, let's write two equations using the given information.
a = b + 3
3b + 2a = 76
Now, just substitute the first equation into the second and solve.
3b + 2(b + 3) = 76
3b + 2b + 6 = 76
5b = 70
b = 14
If Brittany is 14, then Ayanna is 3 years older at 17.
