Answer:

E. Bc The answer is d.

The gnome is 3.84% heavier than the flamingo.

Flamingo weight:

w1 = 4.168 pounds

Garden gnome weight:

w2 = 1.963 kilograms.

There are 2.20462 pounds in a kilogram:

1 kilogram = 2.20462 pounds

1.963 kilograms = ? pounds

Make a proportion:

1 kilogram : 2.20462 pounds = 1.963 kilograms : x

x = 2.20462 pounds * 1.963 kilograms : 1 kilogram

x = 4.328 pounds

It is obvious that 4.328 pounds is bigger than 4.168 pounds, thus Garden gnome is heavier than flamingo. Now, calculate by what percent:

4.328 pounds are 100% and 4.168 pounds are x.

4.328 pounds : 100% = 4.168 pounds : x

x = 100% * 4.168 pounds : 4.328 pounds

x ≈ 96.16%

The difference between two weights is: 100% - 96.16% which is how much the gnome is heavier than the flamingo. U should watch flamingo Roblox

x = 4.328 pounds

It is obvious that 4.328 pounds is bigger than <span>4.168 pounds, thus Garden gnome is heavier than flamingo. Now, calculate by what percent:

Rewrite the equation to isolate the variable.. df= g- 10 for d
ehidna [41]
Df = g - 10

To solve for d, divide both sides by f.

df / f = (g - 10) / f

d = (g - 10) / f

I hope this explains it.

Create a list of steps, in order, that will solve the following equation.
Vlada [557]

Answer:

a = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for a:

2 (a + 5) - 1 = 3

Hint: | Distribute 2 over a + 5.

2 (a + 5) = 2 a + 10:

(2 a + 10) - 1 = 3

Hint: | Group like terms in 2 a - 1 + 10.

Grouping like terms, 2 a - 1 + 10 = 2 a + (10 - 1):

(2 a + (10 - 1)) = 3

Hint: | Evaluate 10 - 1.

10 - 1 = 9:

2 a + 9 = 3

Hint: | Isolate terms with a to the left hand side.

Subtract 9 from both sides:

2 a + (9 - 9) = 3 - 9

Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.

9 - 9 = 0:

2 a = 3 - 9

Hint: | Evaluate 3 - 9.

3 - 9 = -6:

2 a = -6

Hint: | Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Divide both sides of 2 a = -6 by 2:

(2 a)/2 = (-6)/2

Hint: | Any nonzero number divided by itself is one.

2/2 = 1:

a = (-6)/2

Hint: | Reduce (-6)/2 to lowest terms. Start by finding the GCD of -6 and 2.

The gcd of -6 and 2 is 2, so (-6)/2 = (2 (-3))/(2×1) = 2/2×-3 = -3:

Answer:  a = -3

Pls help with these math problems
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

First we add what we know for y into the second equation.

5x - 4(x +2)= -3

From there, we simplify it

5x-4x-8= -3

x-8=-3

Now we get the x on its own

x=5

and now we add x=5 into the first equation that we had and simplify to find y

y=5+2

y=7

So the answer is x=5, y=7 or (5,7)

2)

For this one we do the same thing as with 1.

Add what we know for y (bottom equation) to the top equation

3x-8(x-8)=24

Now we simplify

3x-8x+64=24

-5x+64=24

And now solve for X

-5x=-40

x=8

And then substitute x=8 to find y

y=8=8

y=0

So the answer is x=8, y=0 or (8,0)
