Twenty less than eight times a number is seventy six

Mathematics
1 answer:
arlik [135]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

twenty less = -20

from 8(times a number) and the number is unknown which means it would have variable next to the eight = 8x

therefore the equation would look like 8x-20 =76. then solve it like:

8x-20+20=76+20

8x = 96

8x/8=96/8

x= 12

The given triangle is a right triangle.
The tangent of an angle of right triangle is obtained by dividing the opposite side of the angle with the adjacent side of the angle.
The opposite side of angle R is 5 cm and the adjacent side of angle R is 12 cm.

tan R = 5 / 12 = 0.4167
R = arctan (0.4167) = 22.6 degrees.

Grayson went to the grocery store and bought bottles of soda and bottles of juice. Each bottle of soda has 35 grams of sugar and
Illusion [34]

The number of bottles of soda purchased is 10 and the number of bottles of juice purchased is 4.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let us consider the soda bottles as x and juice bottles as y.

From the given data we can derive 2 equations,

35x+15y= 410.    .....(1)

x=y+6.                 ....(2)

Substitute equation (2) in (1),

35(y+6)+15y=410.

35y+ 210+15y=410.

50y+210=410.

50y=410-210.

50y=200.

y=4.

Substitute y value in equation (2),

x=4+6.

x=10.

The number of bottles of soda purchased is 10 and the number of bottles of juice purchased is 4.
