"one less than the product of a number and 3 is 5 more than the number itself"

Mathematics
1 answer:
Andrej [43]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

  the number is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Perhaps you'd like to find the number.

If n represents the number, we can write the relationship as ...

  3n -1 = n +5

Adding 1-n to both sides gives ...

  2n = 6

  n = 3 . . . . divide by 2

The number is 3.

_____

<em>Check</em>

The product of the number and 3 is 9. One less is 8. That is 5 more than the number itself: 8 = 3 + 5.

The vertex angle of an isosceles triangle measures 40°. What is the measure of a base angle?
Katena32 [7]
A triangle has three angles, and their measures add up to 180 degrees.
An isosceles triangle has at least 2 congruent sides, and the angles opposite the congruent sides are congruent.

This triangle has one angle of 40 deg, and two angles that measure the same; call the measure of each base angle x.

x + x + 40 = 180

2x + 40 = 180

2x = 140

x = 70

The base angles measure 70 deg.
