Step-by-step explanation:

Let people behind you=x

People ahead of you will be x+2

Total number of people in the line(including you) = x+(x+2)+1 = 2x+3

Also, 2x+3=3x

So x=3

People ahead = x+2 = 5

People behind = x = 3

You will need the fraction on “z” to have a common denominator before you can add the two equations. In this equation the common denominator is 6. So you do not change the left side of the equation however the right side turns into -2/6. Now you can add the z’s together and you can also add the integers together.



After simplification I believe the final answer is 1/2z + 1.

I would maybe wait for someone else to answer so that you can be sure because there are other ways to solve this.

Which expression uses the associative property to make it easier to evaluate? (50points)
Naily [24]

The correct answer is option 4: (8.\frac{1}{4}).\frac{3}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is:

8.(\frac{1}{4}.\frac{3}{5})

The associative property states that for any three terms that are being multiplied, different order of multiplication (i.e. which two terms are multiplied first) will give the same answer.

Let a,b and c be the three terms

then

a.(b.c) = (a.b).c

So applying the associative property on given expression

8.(\frac{1}{4}.\frac{3}{5}) = (8.\frac{1}{4}).\frac{3}{5}

Hence,

The correct answer is option 4: (8.\frac{1}{4}).\frac{3}{5}

PLEASE SHOW YOUR WORK WITH YOUR ANSWER. Two bags had 50 kilograms of sugar each. After taking out 3 times as much sugar from bag
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Bag 1: 20

Bag 2: 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount taken out of bag 2

Then the amount left in each bag can be written as:

Bag 1: 50-3x

Bag 2: 50-x

Since we know that half of bag 2 is bag 1, that gives us:

50-3x = 1/2(50-x)

-> 50-3x = 25-x/2

Now lets isolate x and solve:

25 = 5x/2

-> 50 = 5x

-> x = 10

So plug x bag in for the original equations:

Bag 1: 50-3x = 50-3(10) = 20

Bag 2: 50-x = 50-10 = 40
