Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the number
12x-12 = 240
12x = 252
x = 21
Answer: B or 52
Step-by-step explanation: I will explain later
6 miles as 31678 feet is 5 miles
Answer:
x = 2 and y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
We have
x+2y = 8 -----equation (i)
2x-y = 1 -----equation (ii)
Now,
x+2y = 8
or, x = 8-2y ------equation (iii)
Again,
2x-y = 1
or, 2x = 1+y
or, 2x-1 = y
Putting the value of 'x' from equation (iii)
or, 2(8-2y)-1 = y
or, 16-4y-1 = y
or, 16-1 = y+4y
or, 15 = 5y
or, y = 15/5
or, y = 3
Putting the value of 'y' in equation (iii)
x = 8-2y
or, x = 8-(2×3)
or, x = 8-6
or, x = 2
Therefore, x = 2 and y = 3.
