Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:x+y+z=100(let x ,y,z represent the first second and third numbers respectively)
Therefore,y=2z
z=x-8
y=2x-16
substituting the values of x,y and z into the question,we have
x+(2x-16)+(x-8)=100
Simplifying,we have
4x-24=100
adding 24 to both sides of the equation,
4x=100+24
4x=124
dividing both sides of the equation by the co-efficient of x,we have
4x/4=124/4
4.31=124
therefore,x=31.
If you would like to know how many kilometers did Kelly jog that week, you can calculate this using the following steps:
Morgan: 51.2 kilometers
Kelly: Morgan - 6 kilometers = 51.2 - 6 = 45.2 kilometers
The correct result would be 45.2 kilometers.
Hey there!
“The quotient of -9 and y”
• Facts When you come across the word “QUOTIENT” in algebra/ math in general it usually MEANS you’re DIVIDING both your numbers by each other
• Guide: -9 will be your numerator and y would be your denominator (or -9 would be in your front whereas y will be in the back)
So, based on your guide we have your ANSWER should look like: “-9 ÷ y”
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
