the answer is 10x
Solve for
x
by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
x
=
10
Answer:
161 is your answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Easy! If Kiersten has 23 balloons and Catherine has 8 times more than Kiersten, all we need to do is multiply. 23x8=184. Now to figure out how many more red balloons Catherine has compared to Kiersten we need to subtract Kiersten's amount from Catherine's amount. 184-23=161. So Catherine has 161 more red balloons than Kiersten.
The original price was $70.2. (If it’s not supposed to have cents then it’s just $70).
This is because you convert 35% to 1.35. Then, you multiply 52 by 1.35. That’ll give you 70.2.
Your teacher is right. There is no reason to use algebra, which is misused in many problems as a shortcut, and slows the actual learning of math skills.
Here, the solution is as follows:
1. Find the volume of water in tank X.
2. Find the TOTAL base area of the three tanks, imagine that you have a larger tank with the same base area as the sum of the three.
3. Find the height of water in the new tank.
1. Find the volume of water in tank X.
Volume = 32*20*39.5=25280 cm^3
2. Find the TOTAL base area of the three tanks, imagine that you have a larger tank with the same base area as the sum of the three.
Total base area = 32*20 + 30*16 + 20*8 = 640+480+160 = 1280 cm^2
3. Find the height of water in the new tank
Height = Volume / base area
= 25280 / 1280
= 19.75 cm
First work out the parenthesis. Division goes first so 0.12/0.3 = 0.4. 0.8-0.4-0.4. (Sorry for so many dots o_o) 4.92 divided by 0.4 equals 12.3
