First you add the 1/4 and 3/4 together forgetting the /4 and adding the 1+3, that makes 4/4 which is a 1 then add that 1 to the 1 and 2 left over to get the answer
Answer:
depends
Step-by-step explanation:
Find use the distributive property and bring down the ending result (21)
-3x-6=21
Next, add 6 on both sides and you should get:
-3x = 27
The last step is, you divide -3 from 27 and you end up with 9. So, the total answer is x = 9
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first integer be x, then the next is x+1.
x(x + 1) = 3(x + 1) + 4
x^2 + x = 3x+ 3 + 4
x^2 + x - 3x - 7 = 0
x^2 - 2x - 7 = 0
Solving this does not give an integer so maybe there's something wrong with the question??
j = # of jars
b = # of buckets
y = total # of rocks
2j + 3b = y (2 rocks per jar, 3 rocks per bucket)
Because Joy has 3 jars you can plug 3 in for "j", and because she has 4 buckets you can plug in 4 for "b"
2(3) + 3(4) = y
6 + 12 = y
18 = y
