Well, first off, to solve for this, we can write the expression and then solve from there.
Expression: 8x + 3 = 29
So, now that we have our expression, we can solve for our missing number using the balancing method.
8x + 3 = 29
8x + 3 - 3 = 29 - 3 (we subtracted the three because we needed to get rid of the three on the left side of the equation do now we are just left with 8x = 26.
8x = 26
8x/8 = 26/8. (So, the 8 on the left side cancels out and we are just left with X.
X = 26/8
X = 13/4
X = 3 and 1/4
So, in conclusion, the answer to this question is: X = 3 and 1/4 as a mixed number or 13/4 as an improper fraction.
Glad I could help!
Remember that multiples are numbers that can be divided by a number without a remainder so in this case you could add 15 by 15 to find what number in this set is a multiple of 15.
![15+15=30](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=15%2B15%3D30)
![30+15=45](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=30%2B15%3D45)
![45+15=60](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=45%2B15%3D60)
![=60](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D60)
Therefore your answer is "60."
Hope this helps.
So you have length
l=legs and b=base
the first perimeter is 2l+b=8.5 since there are 2 legs
the second perimeter is 4l+b=15.5 since the legs are now 2l long instead of l
subtract the top problem from the bottom problem
(4l+b)-(2l+b)=15.5-8.5
2l=7 so l=3.5
if l=3.5 and 2l+b=8.5, 7+b=8.5, so b=1.5
check by plugging it into the second perimeter
4(3.5)+1.5=15.5-->14+1.5=15.5 it's correct yay!
Answer:
12 and 10 and
-12 and - 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
Larger number = x
Smaller number = x - 2
Equation
x*(x - 2) = 120
Solution
Remove the brackets
x^2 - 2x = 120
Subtract 120 from both sides
x^2 - 2x - 120 = 0 Factor
(x - 12)(x + 10) = 0
x - 12 = 0
x - 12 + 12 = 12
the other number is 2 less than this one or x = 10
=================
x + 10 = 0
x = - 10
The number that is 2 less than this one is
x = -10 -2
x = -12
