Answer:
x=1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
First you distribute the 8 over the (x-3) giving you 8x-24. Do the same for 2x and (4-17). That should give you 8x-34x.
Your equation should look like : 8x-24+7=8x-34x
Next try to balance out your equation. You want your x's all by themselves in order to solve.
The 8x's cancel eachother out so you have -24+7= -34x.
Add the like terms of -24 and 7 to get -17.
Equation: -17= -34x
Divide both sides by -34 to get x by itself.
-17/-34 = x
Reduce by dividing the numerator and denominator by 17 to get -1/-2
Since they are both negative the fraction turns positive.
So the answer should be x=1/2
Answer:
1 box has 12 chocolates
thus 20 boxes have ( 20 * 12) = 240 chocolates
1 carton has 240 chocolates (20box)
10 cartons have 240 * 10 = 2400 chocolates
Answer:
32.5 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
All sides of a square have the same length. Area would therefore be:
(5.7 ft)(5.7 ft) = 32.5 ft^2
Answer:
a) the numerator, <em>a</em>, would be a smaller number than the denominator, <em>b.</em>
b) the fraction a/b could be over or under the amount of 1/2.
c) the fraction could be over or under the amount of 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
examples:
a) 2/8
b)3/8 or 6/10
c) 8/9 or 1 1/8
