Hope this helps! Because when you would fill in the variables 0=0 which which make the expression too that they’d equal the same.
Answer:
Brother is 70.5 and sister is 64.5
Step-by-step explanation:
you will need to set up a simple equation and give out variables.
Girls age = 6-x
Brother's age= x
the you will take those 2 and add them and place them equal to 135:
6-x+x=135
6-2x+6=135+6
The 6 cancels out
2x=141
2x/2=141/2
x=70.5
The brother's age would be 70.5 then and the girl's would be 64.5
Answer:
-6 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
2x-8=4(x+1)
Distribute
2x -8 = 4x+4
Subtract 2x
2x-8-2x = 4x-2x+4
-8 = 2x+4
Subtract 4
-8-4 = 2x+4-4
-12 = 2x
Divide by 2
-12/2 = 2x/2
-6 = x
Remove the negative exponent by rewriting x^-3 as 1/x^3
(9)/(1/x^3)
multiply the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator
9x^3
Answer: $8.60
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the price of a bread = x
Let the price of a tarts = x - 1
If 3 times the price of a loaf of bread is $29.5 more than half of the price of a box of tarts. This can be represented as:
3 × x = 1/2 × (1 - x) + 29.5
3x = 0.5 - 0.5x + 29.5
3x + 0.5x = 29.5 + 0.5
3.5x = 30
x = 30/3.5
x = 8.6
