Answer:
The numbers are 24, 16 and 48
Step-by-step explanation:
For this equation you need to use all the information you have to add in 3 variables, use the information you have to connect them, so you only use one number. You’ll have the second number (x), the first number (x+8) and the third number (3x) now we use all of that to make an equation.
88=x+(x+8)+3x
Now you simplify the equation,
88=5x+8
Now get the x and it’s coefficient alone on one side
80=5x
Now divide both sides so the x is alone
x=16
Since the second number was x you know the second number
the first number is x+8 since x is 16 the first number is 24
The third number is 3 * x so the third number is 48.
So the numbers are 24, 16 and 48
Answer:
a) 10/3
Step-by-step explanation:
2x - 6 + 5x = 1/3 x - 9 + 2y
7x - 6 = 1/3 x - 9 + 2y
or
2y = 7x - 1/3 x - 6 + 9
2y = 21/3 x - 1/3 x + 3
2y = 20/3 x + 3
y = 20/6 x + 3/2
y = 10/3 x + 3/2
Y = mx + b where m = slope
In this case slope m = 10/3
