<span /><span>TLDR: Equation is 5(10 + x) = 6x. x = 50, so Sheila deposited $50 each 6 trips. Sherri deposited $60 each 5 trips. Both of them deposited $300 in total.

</span>Sherri deposited $10 more into her bank account than Sheila each 5 times. Expression: 5(x + 10).

Sheila deposited money 6 times
Expression: (6)(x) or 6x

Put it all together and the equation is 5(x+10)=6x. 

Solve by distributing the 5 on the right side of the equation 5(x+10) to get 5x + 50 = 6x. Subtract 5x on both sides of equation. 5x - 5x + 50 = 6x - 5x to get 50 = 1x. Divide by 1 on each side to isolate the variable. x = 50. Sheila paid $50 in each of her 6 deposits, so she deposited $300 in total. Check the equation by replacing x with 50. 

Sherri paid $60 in each of her 5 deposits because 50 + 10 is 60. 60 by 5 is also $300.

Nathan has three pieces of wood the first is 9.8 feet in length the second is 7.5 feet in length and the third is 12 feet in len
snow_tiger [21]
9.4 Ft for the first one

7.5 Ft for the second piece

12 Ft for the Third

he uses 5.2 Ft from the first piece of wood so 9.4 - 5.2= 4.6ft
he uses 6.1 ft from the second piece of wood , 7.5 - 6.1 = 1.4 ft
Nathan didnt use any of the 3rd piece of wood , so he still have 12 Feet of wood remaining so, 12+4.6+1.4 = 18 feet of wood left that he didnt use.

A triangle has side lengths of 39, 80, and<br> 87. Is this triangle a right triangle?
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

39²=1521

80²=6400

39²+80²=1521+6400=7921

87²=7569

7921≠7569

so it is not aright angled triangle.
