Answer:
Let the original number be x
Successor is defined as the number which comes immediately after a particular number.
also, the successor of a whole number is the number obtained by adding 1 to that number.
Then, the successor of a number x is, x+1
As per the given condition :
we have;
Using distributive property on LHS (i.e, 
)
Then, we have
5x+5+x=83
Combine like terms;
6x+5=83
Subtract 5 from both the sides we get;
6x+5-5=83-5
Simplify:
6x=78
Divide both side by 6,
Simplify:
x =13
Therefore, the original number x is, 13
Answer:
I'm not 100% sure but I think it's $6.20
Step-by-step explanation:
First you add up the apples which equals $1.80 then you add up the bananas which equals $1.00 then you add the yogurt together which amounts to $4.50. After that you add all of that together which totals to $7.30.
For the sake of finding the percentage we're gonna move the decimal point to the very end. ( so its 730.0). Now in order to find 15% we have to find 10%. To find 10%, you move the decimal point over one (73.00). So 10% of 730 is 73. 10% + 5% = 15%. And half of 10% is 5%. So, we cut 73 in half so now we have 36.5. Now we add 36.5 to 73 (because 10% + 5%=15%) I'm just gonna round 36.5 to 37, and 73+37= 110. Now we move the decimal point back so its $1.10. Now we subtract $1.10 from $7.30 which is equal to $6.20. So your answer is $6.20.
(I'm rlly bad at explaining things so sorry if this wasnt clear enough. Also I'm not the best at math but I guess I know percentages.)
Answer:
is 38.1% an answer choice??
Step-by-step explanation:
B>a
b=8a-1
and we are told that 98=a+b so a=98-b, using this value for a in the equation above gives you:
b=8(98-b)-1
b=784-8b-1
b=783-8b
9b=783
b=87, and since a+b=98, a=11
so a and b are 11 and 87
