Answer:
11 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
15+10+x=36
25+x=36
36-25=x
x=11
1: multiple both sides by 2
Ex:-7n+10=-32
2: subtract 10 from both sides
Ex: -7n=-42
3:divide both sides by -7 to get n alone
Ex: n=6
Answer is 6 and the process is elimination!
Answer:
a) x = -10
b) x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
2(x + 3) = x - 4
2x + 6 = x - 4
2x - x = -4 - 6
x = -10
b)
4(5x - 2) = 2(9x + 3)
20x - 8 = 18x + 6
20x - 18x = 6 + 8
2x = 14
x = 7
Answer:
132 children and 88 adults
Step-by-step explanation:
let x represent the amount of kids and y represent the amount of adults.
since the problem says there was a total of 220 people at the fair an equation can be made
x+y=220
the problem tells that each childrens ticket was 1.5$ and each adult ticket was $4 and that a total of $550 was made that day, we can use the knowledge to make an equation:
1.5x + 4y = 550
using the equations we can make this systems of equations:
1.5x + 4y =550
x + y =220
solve the systems of equations by subracting y on both sides of th bottom equation:
x=220-y
since x is equivant to 220-y it can be substitued for x in the first equation to make this:
1.5(220-y)+4y =550
--solve for y--
y=88 - there were 88 adults
substute 88 for y in the second equation
x+88=220
--solve for x--
x=138 - there were 132 children
Answer:
f(3) = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)= 7x-5
We want to find the value when x=3
f(3) = 7*3 -5
f(3) = 21-5
f(3) = 16
