The primary reason why scientific notation is important is that it allows us to convert very large or very small numbers into much more manageable sizes. When these numbers are in scientific notation, it is much easier to work with them
let h= history books
science books = s
h=2s there are 2 times as many history as science so to get them equal we double the science
h+s=81 there are 81 total history and science books
2s+s=81 substitute 2s for h in the above equation
3s = 81 combine like terms
s = 27
There are 27 science books
h=2s
h=2(27)
h=54
there are 54 history books
Answer:
x=28°
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+3x-10+50=180
5x+40=180
5x=180-40
5x=140
x=140/5
x=28°
Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, let's solve :)
So first we have to distribute on the left side(it doesn't matter which side FYI)
When we do, we have :
10x + 30 = -4(-5-2x)
Now we distribute on the right side! Remember, negative * negative = positive.
10x + 30 = 20 + 8x + 3x
Let's simplify on the right side to
10x + 30 = 20 + 11x
Now, let's subtract 10x on both sides to get
x + 20 = 30(i simply flipped the equation)
Subtract 20 on both sides to get!
x = 10!
Answer: 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Here's the complete question:
Leah has 8 4/7 meters of cloth, which she divides equally among her friends. Each friend 10/7 gets meters of cloth. She distributed the cloth to ---- friends.
Total length of the cloth = 8 4/7m
Number of friends = Unknown
Amount of length gotten by each friend= 10/7
The number of friends that she shred the cloth among will be:
= Total length of cloth / Length gotten by each friend
= 8 4/7 ÷ 10/7
= 60/7 ÷ 10/7
= 6/7 × 7/10.
= 60/10
= 6.
It was shared among 6 friends
