Ok, so you need to find something you can divide with both 2 and 8. You should get 2. 2 divided by 2 equals 1, and 8 divided by 2 equals 4.
So the simplest form of 2/8 is 1/4.
(27x + 16*8)/x+8 = 19
(27x +128) /x+8 = 19
multiply both sides by x+8
27x+128 = 19x +152
subtract 19x from both side:
8x +128 = 152
subtract 128 from both side:
8x = 24
divide both sides by 8
x = 24 /8
x = 3 pounds
Answer:
The school needs 2,843 more to raise.
Step-by-step explanation:
Sonya is incorrect because 5000 minus 2157 is 2843.
The answer is 2843 more dollars.
X-c/2 = d
Multiply by 2 on both sides. Leaves us with:
x-c = 2d
Add 2 to both sides. Leaves us with:
x = 2d + c
Unless you have values to substitute into the variables, this is your answer:
x = 2d + c
This is a systems of equations.
s = stamp, e = envelope

Substitute e + 9 for s.
.1(e + 9) + .13e = 2.51
Simplify.
.1e + .9 + .13e = 2.51
Simplify.
.14e + .9 = 2.51
Subtract .9 from both sides.
.14e = 1.61
Divide both sides by .14.
e = 11.5
Now, you can input e into the other equation.
11.5 + 9 = s
Simplify.
20.5 = s
s = 20.5, e = 11.5
