16/5= 3 1/5
Rational
Irrational numbers never end and can't be written as a fraction. Ex. pi
3/5 = 3/y
40 = 3y
Divide both by 3
Answer= 13.3
The polygon would have 18 sides. Hope this helps!
1 gallon of milk costs 0.50 more than 5 times a gallon of water.
From that information milk is 5x +0.50 the cost of water.
The cost of milk is $3.75, so now we have:
3.75 = 5x + 0.50
Subtract 0.50 from each side:
3.25 = 5x
Divide both sides by 5:
X = 3.25 / 5
x = 0.65
The cost of water = $0.65
Adding all of these should equal to 180 from the way the angle is set up.
So the equation should be:
(3x + 2) + (2x + 5) + (2x - 9) = 180
You can remove parentheses as it doesn’t affect the equation since it is all addition.
Let’s first add the common variables together.
3x + 2x + 2x = 7x
2 + 5 + (-9) = -2
So now we should have:
7x - 2 = 180
Now add 2 to both sides.
7x = 182
Divide both sides by 7 to isolate x.
x = 26
So x is 26.
