The answer would probably be D because you don't know what x is.
Answer:
x = 35
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
5 (x + 20) = 7 x + 30
Expand out terms of the left hand side:
5 x + 100 = 7 x + 30
Subtract 7 x from both sides:
(5 x - 7 x) + 100 = (7 x - 7 x) + 30
5 x - 7 x = -2 x:
-2 x + 100 = (7 x - 7 x) + 30
7 x - 7 x = 0:
100 - 2 x = 30
Subtract 100 from both sides:
(100 - 100) - 2 x = 30 - 100
100 - 100 = 0:
-2 x = 30 - 100
30 - 100 = -70:
-2 x = -70
Divide both sides of -2 x = -70 by -2:
(-2 x)/(-2) = (-70)/(-2)
(-2)/(-2) = 1:
x = (-70)/(-2)
The gcd of -70 and -2 is -2, so (-70)/(-2) = (-2×35)/(-2×1) = (-2)/(-2)×35 = 35:
Answer: x = 35
Answer:
Lisa bought 9 gallons of ice cream
Step-by-step explanation:
lets take "x" as the gallons of lemonade
if Lisa made purchases worth $34 that is what our equation will e equal to
ice cream:7.5 per gallon
milk: 2.5 per gallon
lemonade: 3 per gallon
since Lisa purchases 4 gallons of milk and 2 gallons of ice cream we will multiply that by the unit money for each food respectively:
7.5(2)+2.5(4)+X=34
SIMPLIFY:
15+10+x=34
15+10=25
25+x=34
25-25+x=34-25
x=9
Lisa bought 9 gallons of ice cream
hope this helps!
Answer:
x=12
Step-by-step explanation:
because they are proportional, the side should be 100 so you just solve from that equation for 100.
we know that
area larger triangle (DEF)=[scale factor]²*area smaller triangle (ABC)
solve for scale factor
scale factor=√[area larger triangle/area smaller triangle]
scale factor=√[144/100]------> scale factor=1.2
therefore
measure EF=scale factor *measure BC
solve for measure BC
measure BC=measure EF/scale factor-------> 15/1.2------> 12.5 cm
the answer is
measure BC is 12.5 cm
