Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
If f(x) equals 3x-7 and also equals 23, then you can set 3x-7 equal to 23
3x - 7 = 23
3x = 30
x = 10
Divide then multiply then do left to right
Answer:
68
Step-by-step explanation:
The interior angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees
3x + 2x + x = 180
6x = 180
x = 180/6
x = 30
< C = 2x.......2(30) = 60 <===
< B = 3x.......3(30) = 90
< A = x................. = 30
Answer:
33.3%
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of people that must be fed has increased from 4 to 6, so is 6/4 = 3/2 as many as planned.
Assuming the additional people eat the food at the same rate as the original people, the time and number of people are assumed to be inversely proportional. That is, the time the food will last is 2/3 of the originally expected time. It has decreased by 1/3 × 100% = 33.3%.
___
If you like, you can count rations. For four people for 12 days, at 3 rations per person per day, a total of 144 rations are needed. When the number of people becomes 6, the number of days that will last is ,,,
(144 rations)/(6 persons)/(3 rations/person/day) = 8 days
The percentage change in trip days is ...
(8 -12)/12 × 100% = -4/12 × 100% = -33.3% . . . a decrease of 33.3%
