What number = x

x - 3.5 = 12.7

Isolate the x, add 3.5 from both sides

x - 3.5 (+3.5) = 12.7 (+3.5)

x = 12.7 (+3.5)

x = 16.2

16.2 is your answer


hope this helps

Let's make an equation. We need to find a number that when 3.5 is subtraced from it is 12.7. The equation would look like.
X-3.5=12.7
Now, we need X by itself, so we need to add 3.5 to both sides.
X=12.7+3.5
X=16.2
If the number is 16.2, let's check.
16.2-3.5=12.7
The number is 16.2.

Which ordered pair is the solution to the system of equations?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

You can use Gaussian Elimination.

Double both sides of the first equation and add the second equation.

6x + 4y = 8

5x - 4y = 3

---------------

11x      = 11

x = 1

5 - 4y = 3

-4y = -2

y = 1/2

Georgia [21]
For example, the probability of an outcome of heads on the toss of a fair coin is ½ or 0.5. The probability of an event can also be expressed as a percentage (e.g., an outcome of heads on the toss of a fair coin is 50% likely) or as odds (e.g., the odds of heads on the toss of a fair coin is 1:1).

a different taxi service charges a pickup fee of $4 plus charge of $1.75 per miles driven. Write an equation for this function,
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 1.75x + 4.....with x being number of miles and y being total cost

in y = mx + b form, the slope can be found in the m position and the y int can be found in the b position

y = mx + b

y = 1.75x + 4......so ur slope(m) = 1.75 and ur y int(b) = 4 or (0,4)
