Answer:
b= -4
Step-by-step explanation:
On both sides of the equation has distributive property. We need to solve that first. Let's start with the left side of the equation.
*Positive multiplied by a negative equals a negative
-2b+2(b-10)= 2(10+5b)
-2b+2b-20= 2(10+5b)
-20= 2(10+5b)
Now let's solve the right side of the equation
-20= 20+10b
-20 -20
-40 = 10b
-40/10 = 10b/10
b= -4
Hope this helps!
Answer:
83
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of robbers be x
If they share 6 rolls each, the tota rolls will be 6x and since they have five remainder, the overall total is then 6x+5
In case they share 7 rolls each, it means they have 7x rolls but here they will be less 8 rolls hence 7x-8 is the overall total.
Equating these two
7x-8=6x+5
Arranging similar terms
7x-6x=8+5
x=13
Therefore, the robbers are 13
The rolla they have will be
6(13)+5=83
Or
7(13)-8=83
Answer:
x =10
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the pythagoras theorem om one of the right triangle;
(√74)² = (x/2)²+7²
74 = (x/2)²+49
(x/2)² = 74 - 49
(x/2)² = 25
Square root both sides
√ (x/2)² = ±√25
x/2 = ±5
x = 2 * ±5
x = ±10
Hence the value of x is 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the 1st number be x
2nd number = x + 2
3rd number = x + 4
4th number = x + 6
5th number = x + 8
x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 + x + 8 = 20
5x + 20 = 20
5x = 20 - 20
5x = 0
x = 0 ÷ 5
x = 0
The 5 consecutive integers are
0, 2, 4, 6, 8
Formula : Amount of change / Original amount
1. 144 - 90/ 144
2. Subtract 144 and 90
3. 54/ 144
4. Divide 54 by 144
5 0.375
6 Move the decimal two places to the right.
7. 37.5 %
Answer: 37.5% is the markup rate
