Answer:
These types of questions are not daunting if you break it down. First look at "Five less than twice the value of a number."
"Twice the value of a number" is simply 2x.
"Five less" is simply -5, so for the first part we have (2x-5)
Next, analyze the second part. "Three times the quantity of four more than one half the number."
Looking at "Three times the quantity" simply means "3 times something".
"the quantity of four more than one half the number" is 4 + "one half the number" or 4 + (1/2)x.
So the second part is simply 3(4+x/2).
Finally we finish the entire equation, (2x-5) = 3(4+x/2) then solve for x.
2x-5 = 12 + (3/2)x
2x-(3/2)x = 17
x/2 = 17
x=34
Checking the left side, (2x-5) = 2(34) - 5 = 63.
Checking the right side, 3(4+(34/2)) = 3(4+17) = 3(21) = 63.
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the shelves are 75.5cm long, the total length she would be needing is 75.5cm × 6 = 453cm
Now, the length of the wood she is using is 180cm, to get enough length to make the shelves, we would need to divide 453cm by 180cm which gives a value of around 2.51
This is approximately equal to 3 when rounded up to the nearest whole number.
Answer:
C:11/12
Step-by-step explanation:
1 2/-3/4
5/3-3/4
20/12-9/12
11/12
This is because given a number x. The next number is always x+1 and the sum is the result of adding them
