So I just did 3x-20=223

3x=243

x=243/3

x=81

Answer:

81

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be y.

20 less than 3 times y = 223

The expression is thus

3y - 20 = 223

Add 20 to both sides to eliminate -20 on the left

3y -20 + 20 = 223 + 20

3y = 243

Divide both sides by 3 to isolate y

3y/3 = 243/3

y = 81

The number is 81

A rectangular plot of ground is 5 meters longer than it is wide, It’s area is 20,000 square meters
Artyom0805 [142]
I'm assuming you're looking for the dimensions of the plot.  I'm going with that.  ;)  If the length of the plot is 5 meters longer than the width, then L = w + 5.  The area for a rectangle is L*w, and we have an area value of 20,000 so our formula is 20000=(w+5)(w) and 20,000=w^2+5w.  We will bring the 20,000 over by subtraction and set the polynomial equal to 0 to factor and solve for w.  w^2+5w-20,000=0  Solving for w we get values of w=138.9 and -143.9.  Of course the 2 things in math that will never EVER be negative are time and distance/length, so -143.9 is out.  Our width is 138.9 and the length is 138.9 + 5 so the length is 143.9.  And there you go!  Hope that's what you needed!

If logx √2 = 1/6<br> , then x =?
Kaylis [27]

Step-by-step explanation:

logx√2=1/6

<=> logx(2^1/2)=1/6

<=>1/2.logx(2)=1/6

<=>logx(2)=1/3

<=>2=x^1/3

<=>x=

Sorry I forgot the formula in the last step
