If you add 21 to my number and then multiply the result by 3, you will get 84 more than two-thirds of my number. Find my number.
Ksivusya [100]

Based on the calculations, the unknown number is equal to \frac{-45}{7}

  • Let the unknown number be x.

<h3>How to find an unknown number:</h3>

Translate the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;

Adding 21 to the unknown number:

21 +x

Multiplying the result by 3:

3\times (21+x)

84 more than two-thirds of the unknown number:

\frac{2x}{3} +84

Equating the equations, we have:

3\times (21+x) = \frac{2x}{3} +84\\\\43+3x=\frac{2x}{3} +84

Cross-multiplying, we have:

43+3x=\frac{2x}{3} +84\\\\129+9x=2x+84\\\\9x-2x=84-129\\\\7x=-45\\\\x=\frac{-45}{7}

Write the sum of the numbers as the product of their GCF and another sum 64+28 PLEASE ANSWER QUICKLY
zepelin [54]

64 and 28 have a GCF of 4, since 64 = 4 x 16, 28 = 4 x 7, and 7 and 16 have no factors other than 1 in common. Knowing that, we can rewrite 64 + 28 as

4 x 16 + 4 x 7

and then use the distributive property to rewrite it again as

4 x (16 + 7)

Find all solutions of the given system of equations and check your answer graphically. HINT [See Examples 2–5.] (If there is no
Reika [66]

The values of (x,y)=(4,4). In terms of x, the value y(x)=8-x, If the given equation is x-y=0 and x+y=8.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

                              x-y=0...............................(1)

                              x+y=8...............................(2)

Step:1

          Solution can be obtained by Elimination method,

          Equation (1) is multiplied by (-1)           ( Eqn (1) × -1 )

                             -x+y=0..............................(3)

          Substrate the equation (1) and equation (3),

                              -x+y=0

                                x+y=8

         ( - )

         (-x-x)+(y-y)=(0-8)

                             (-2x)=-8

                                -2x = -8

         we can cancel the minus because it is available in both sides,

                                  2x=8

                                    x = \frac{8}{2}

                                     x = 4

        From the value of x, Equation (2) becomes,

                              x+y=8

                               4+y=8

                                     y = 8-x    (Value of y in terms of x)

        Where, x = 4

                                     y = 8-4        

                                     y =4

Step:2

       Check for solution,

                             x+y=8.....................................(2)

       Substitute the values of x and y,

                             4 + 4 = 8

                                   8 = 8

Result:

         The values of (x,y)=(4,4). In terms of x, the value y(x)=8-x, where x=4. If the given equation is x-y=0 and x+y=8.

Write in simplest form 12:3
prisoha [69]
To put this into simplest form, you can see what common factors they have. 3 can go into 12, so we can divide 12 by 3.
12÷3= 4
3÷3=1
So 4:1 is the simplest form of 12:3.
