I think that the answer is 16
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+14<4 or -2(x-8)<-2
-14 -14 -2x+16<-2
5x<-10 -16 -16
÷5 ÷5 -2x<-18
x<-2 ÷-2 ÷-2
x>9 (sign changes because you divide by a negative number)
x<-2 or x>9
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of orange jelly beans be x , as we do not know the exact value of it yet. There are 12 times as many green jelly beans than the orange ones. So , if the number of orange jelly beans is x , the number of green jelly beans will be = 12 times x , which can be written as 12x. Now there are a total of 1872 jelly beans , but they are either orange or green , so we already know that the number of orange jbs is x , and the number of green jelly beans is 12x. So if we the green jelly beans and orange jelly beans , it should be 1872.
Now all we need to do is to find x.
We know that ,
x + 12x = 1872
Now we add x and 12x on the left hand side
13x = 1872
Now we divide both sides by 13 to get x. (That includes 1872 as well)
x = 144
Now we have the value of x which is 144
We know that the number of green jelly beans was 12 times x
So the number of green jelly beans in numeric value is : 12 * 144
As x is equal to 144
Ans . : The number of green jelly beans is 1728.
Add up the fractional amounts and divide them by however many amounts there are..........
eg.
Step 1:Add the fractions
1/6 + 5/8 +3/4
(find the LCD)
1/6 + 5/8 + 3/4 = 4/24 + 15/24 + 18/24 = 37/24
Step 2: Divide the sum by the number of numbers in the set
37/24 ÷ 3= 37/24 ÷ 3/1= 37/24 X 1/3= 37/72
<span>So the mean (average) is 37/72</span>
