Make an equation. x will be the third number.

To find the average, you add up the numbers then divide the sum by the number of numbers you added up.

(8 + 9 + x) ÷ 3 = 7
Now solve. Add up like terms (8 + 9).

(17 + x) ÷ 3 = 7
Multiply both sides by 3.

17 + x = 21
Subtract both sides by 17.

x = 4

The third number is 4.

Peyton needed to get her computer fixed. She took it to the repair store. The
Lelu [443]

Answer:

The cost of labor per hour is $105.

The expression is 4x + 77 = 497

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression is 4x + 77 = 497, where 4x represents the cost of labor per hour, 77 is the cost of the parts, and 497 is the total.

4x + 77 = 497

4x + 77 - 77 = 497 -77

4x = 420

4x/4=420/4

x = 105

R+q-r; use q=6,and r=2
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

so you would replace all r with 2 which is 2+q-2

then replace the q with 6 so it would be: r+6-r

combined both of these to get

2+6-2

which would equal to 6

add the 2 and the 6 to get 8

then subtract 2 to get 6

Solve using elimination 5x+7y=9 <br> 2x-3y=-37
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

x = -8

y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 7y = 9

2x - 3y = -37

1.) First, multiply each side to match either y-values or x-values. (In this example, we'll use match x-values)

10x + 14y = 18 (multiplied by 2)

10x - 15y = -185 (multiplied by 5)

2.) Then, subtract the entirety of one equation to isolate the y-value.

10x + 14y = 18

-10x + 15y = 185

3.) Add and subtract values and divide to find y.

29y = 203

y = 7

4.) Plug-in y to solve for x into one equation, or repeat steps 1-3.

15x + 21y = 27

14x - 21y = -259

29x = -232

x = -8
