Which word phrase describes the algebraic expression x - 16.5?

Answer:

  x less 16.5

Step-by-step explanation:

"x -16.5" means 16.5 is subtracted from x. The resulting value is 16.5 less than x. The wording "x less 16.5" basically means "x minus 16.5" and/or "x reduced by 16.5".

__

Subtraction is not commutative, so "16.5 decreased (or reduced) by x", meaning "16.5 -x" or "16.5 minus x", is not the same thing.

Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

m∠1  = m∠2  {Corresponding angles}

78 - 2x = 89 - 3x

Add 3x to both sides

78 - 2x + 3x = 89

78 + x = 89

Subtract 78 from  both sides

x = 89 - 78

x = 11

79.8 = 22d

Divide both sides of the equation b 22

79.8/22 = 22d/22

3.627 = d

poizon [28]

The weight of each pie will be 6 and 8 pounds respectively if the ratio of the seeds in these piles 3:4

<h3>What is the ratio?</h3>

It is described as the comparison of two quantities to determine how many times one obtains the other. The proportion can be expressed as a fraction or as a sign: between two integers.

We have:

A greedy hamster hoarded 2 piles of sunflower seeds. Yesterday the ratio of the seeds in these piles was 3:4

Let 3x and 4x are the seeds from the smaller and bigger pile.

= 4x + 2  (greedy hamster placed another 2 pounds of seeds in the bigger pile)

= 3x - 1/4 (ate 1/4 pound from the smaller pile)

4x + 2 = 5x

Because the quantities of seeds in those piles is in the ratio of 5:16

After solving:

x = 2

Smaller pile weight = 3x = 3(2) = 6

Bigger pile wieght = 4x = 4(2) = 8

Thus, the weight of each pie will be 6 and 8 pounds respectively if the ratio of the seeds in these piles 3:4
