(1/4)x-7=17

(1/4)x=24

x=96

Solve it by reversing what is done to the number. You don't need an equation to do that.

17 is 7 less than ...

so adding 7 to 17, making 24, will give you ... one-fourth of the number. If 24 is one-fouth of the number, multiplying 24 by 4 will give you the number. Doing that tells you the number is 96.

_____

You can do the same solution process using an equation.

(1/4)n - 7 = 17 . . . . . 7 less than 1/4 of a number is 17

(1/4)n = 24 . . . . . . . add 7

n = 4·24 = 96 . . . . multiply by 4

The number is 96.

SOLVE. (5n)÷(30m)+(2m+4n)÷(30m)
Andru [333]
Note, since both factors have the same denominator, we can add the numerators together.

Numerator :

5n + (2m + 4n) = 5n + 2m + 4n = 9n + 2m

Denominator :

30m

Thus,

= (9n + 2m) / 30m

Solving a _____ is the process of calculating unknown side lengths or angle measures of a triangle if certain of the side length
Ray Of Light [21]
ANSWER

C) Triangle

EXPLANATION

Solving a triangle is the process of calculating unknown side lengths or angle measures of a triangle if certain of the side lengths and/or angle measures are known.

We use the sine rule and cosine rule to find the missing sides and angles.

If the triangle has a right angle, then this is a special case, where we can use the trigonometric ratios and the Pythagoras theorem to find the unknown angles and sides.
