I think Cecilia has 66 fishes and Tasha has 82 fishes. The way how I figured it out is that first you divide 148 and get 74. Then for Cecilia you subtract 8 from 74 and get 66. For Tasha, you take 74 and add 8 and get 82. If you add both 82 and 66, you will get 148 fishes. I'm not sure, but I think that is the answer.

Equation: x+2x+(2x+8)=148

Solve for x: 5x+8=148
                   5x=140
                   x=28

Plug back into original equation to find the other two amounts:
28+2(28)+[2(28)+8]=148
Cecilia = 28, Oscar = 56, Tasha = 64

Check: 28+56+64= 148
            148=148
            The solutions work

Cecilia has 28 fish, Oscar has 56 fish, and Tasha has 64 fish

Solve the equation using the order of operations.<br><br> 5+{2×[(5−1)+6]}÷4
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

The order of operations is PEMDAS

First step is to do everything is parenthesis or brackets

5+{2*[(5-1)+6]}/4

{2*[(5-1)+6]}

First you would go 5-1=4, because that is the first equation that is in parenthesis by itself.

{2*[4+6]}

Next you would go 4+6=10, because that is your next smallest bracket

{2*10}

Last you would go 2*10=20

Your equation now looks like this

5+{20}/4

In PEMDAS your next step is exponents, but we don't have any so we go on to the next one which is multiply/division

5+5

You would go 20/4=5

Last step is to add/subtract

5+5=10

Your final answer would be 10

Hope this helps ;)

Please help again I need it
Ilya [14]
The two angles are verticals angles so they are congruent, so you can solve for x by writing and solving an equation

6x-82=3x-23

Combine like terms

3x=105

And simplify to get x=35

A line passes through the point (6, -1) and has a slope of 3/2 Write an equation in slope-intercept form
Luda [366]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  y = 3/2x -10

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope equation can be written ...

  y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . for a line with slope m through point (h, k)

Using the given values, this is ...

  y = (3/2)(x -6) -1 = 3/2x -9 -1

  y = 3/2x -10 . . . . . slope-intercept equation
