16 balls.
Let's call x the total number of golf balls that Ricardo had before he lost the first 6 balls. (x - 6).
Then he bought 12 more and lost 4 so basically 12 - 4 = 8
Add that to the equation: (x-6) + 8
And now that he has 18 golf balls at end of the second day the total must add to 18.
Full equation: (x-6) + 8 = 18
(x-6) + 8 = 18
(x-6) = 18 - 8 <-- Transpose
(x-6) = 10
16 - 6 = 10 <-- What would x have to be inoder to make this equation true? 16!
So x = 16
16 is the number of golf balls the Ricardo began with.
To find the value take the b and divide it by two. then square it. here your b value is 2 so 2/2 is 1. squared is. 1.
Answer:
0 = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
3(m−1)=5m+3−2m
(3)(m)+(3)(−1)=5m+3+−2m (Distribute)
3m+−3=5m+3+−2m
3m−3=(5m+−2m)+(3) (Combine Like Terms)
3m−3=3m+3
3m−3=3m+3
Step 2: Subtract 3m from both sides.
3m−3−3m=3m+3−3m
−3=3
Step 3: Add 3 to both sides.
−3+3=3+3
0=6
The pattern of a linear function, is the following:
y = mx + b
Where m is always the slope.
m in this case is -4, hence
The correct answer for your question is -4.
Answer:
x=7
Step-by-step explanation:
by pythagoras, 25^2=24^2+x^2
solve for x
