Let x = the number of green apples, let 4x = the number of red apples
4x + x = 50
Answer:
We start with the equation:
A: 3*(x + 2) = 18
And we want to construct equation B:
B: X + 2 = 18
where I suppose that X is different than x.
Because in both equations the right side is the same thing, then the left side also should be the same thing, this means that:
3*(x + 2) = X + 2
Now we can isolate the variable x.
(x + 2) = (X + 2)/3
x = (X + 2)/3 - 2
Then we need to replace x by (X + 2)/3 - 2 in equation A, and we will get equation B.
Let's do it:
A: 3*(x + 2) = 18
Now we can replace x by = (X + 2)/3 - 2
3*( (X + 2)/3 - 2 + 2) = 18
3*( (X + 2)/3 ) = 18
3*(X + 2)/3 = 18
(X + 2) = 18
Which is equation B.
Answer:
x = 3.27837238
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The value of a variable that makes an equation true.
2. In chemistry, a solution is a homogeneous mixture composed of only one phase.
Answer:
45 minutes is 3/4 of an hour, so find 3/4 of 12.
Divide 12 by 4 to get 1/4 of 12. That is 3.
3/4 is 3 of those, so multiply it by 3 to get 9.
So, she will have biked 9 miles.
