3m - 5p = 12
3m(-3m) -5p = (-3m)+ 12
-5p = -3m + 12
(-5)/-5p = (-5)/ (-3m + 12)
p = 3/5m + 12/-5
Answer:
x = 54°
y = 66°
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 120° (given)
x = y - 12
Then, y + y - 12 = 120°
(y + y) - 12 = 120°
2y - 12 = 120°
2y = 120 + 12 = 132°
y = 132/2 = 66°
x = y - 12 = 66 - 12 = 54°
There you go :)
Hello.
First, let the number be r.
5 times r is written like this:

Now, add 45:

Now, the sum of 5r+45 is equal to the sum of 85 and 140:

In order to solve this equation, we need to add 85 and 140:

Now, subtract 45 from both sides:



The last step is to divide both sides by 5:

Therefore, the answer is

I hope it helps.
Have a nice day.

In the question, it is already given that the total number of runners in the race is 60 and out of them 1/3 dropped out in the first half. In the second half 1/4 of the remaining runners dropped out.
Now
Total number of runners in the race = 60
Number of runners that dropped out in the first half = 1/3 * 60
= 20
Number of runners remaining = 60 - 20
= 40
Number of runners dropping out in the second half = 40 * 1/4
= 10
Then the number of runners that finished the race = 40 - 10
= 30
Then 30 runners completed the race.
