Kay [80]3 years ago
5 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let there be x blue ribbons

\therefore \:  \frac{1}{5}  +  \frac{7}{15}  + x = 36 \\   \therefore \:  \frac{1 \times 3}{5 \times 3}  +  \frac{7}{15}  + x = 36 \\ \therefore \:  \frac{3}{15}  +  \frac{7}{15}  + x = 36 \\ \therefore \:  \frac{3 + 7}{15}   + x = 36 \\ \therefore \:  \frac{10}{15}   + x = 36 \\ \therefore \: x = 36 -  \frac{10}{15} \\ \therefore \: x =  \frac{36 \times 15 - 10}{15} \\ \therefore \: x =  \frac{540 - 10}{15} \\ \therefore \: x =  \frac{530}{15} \\ \therefore \: x =  35\frac{5}{15}  \\ \\  \therefore \: x =  35\frac{1}{3} \: are \: blue.  \\

Please help and explain so I understand!!​

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

4x^2-11=89

add 11 to both sides

4x^2=100

Divide 4 on both sides

x^2=25

Take the square root of both sides to eliminate the power of two from x

\sqrt{x^2} =\sqrt{25}

Simplify

x=5

The sum of two numbers is -18. If the first number is 10, which equation represents this situation, and what is the second numbe
ki77a [65]
Don’t know if there’s much of an equation for it, but I guess the best way to write it out is 10 + x = -18. Then, you would subtract the 10 from both sides in order to isolate the x. So then you’re left with x = -28. So -28 is your answer.
