The answer is a)
Let me know if you need an explanation
The answer would be 2.4, or in fraction form 12/5. Please mark brainliest <3
A variable is an unknown like x so
first we start with
x=8
then we subtract (because you must add to reverse subtraction)
x-2=8-2
x-2=6
then we divide ( because you must multiply to reverse division)
(x-2)/3=6/3
(x-2)/3=2
find x
Answer:
I don't know that options but......
if we are rounding to the thousands, then the answer would be 3,000
if hundreds, the answer is 3,400
if tens: 3,390
If ones: 3,390
Step-by-step explanation:
round each number up or down based upon what the digit is.
X= # students who got lower grades
2x+3= # students with grade A
STEP 1:
Add the two sets above equal to 24.
x + (2x + 3)= 24
combine like terms
3x + 3= 24
subtract 3 from both sides
3x= 21
divide both sides by 3
x= 7 (# students lower than A)
STEP 2:
substitute x value from step 1 to find # grade A students
=2x + 3
=2(7) + 3
=14 + 3
=17 (# grade A students)
CHECK:
x + (2x + 3)= 24
7 + 2(7) + 3= 24
7 + 14 + 3= 24
24= 24
ANSWER: There were 17 students with grade A.
Hope this helps! :)
