Answer:

85 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

its really easy just make them equal to eachother and then solve

9x + 13 = 11x-3

-11x (subtract because 11x is positive)

-2x +13 = -3

-13 (subtract because 13 is positive)

-2x = -16

divide both sides by -2

x= 8

substitute 8 for the x's and you have your answer

A box of pencils is 5 1/4 inches wide. Seven pencils, laid side by side, take up 2 5/8 inches of the width. How many inches of t

Andre45 [30]

Answer: Width of box is not taken up by pencils = $2\dfrac58\text{ inches}$

Width of each pencil $=\dfrac38\text{ inches}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Width of pencil box = $5\dfrac14\text{ inches}=\dfrac{21}{4}\text{ inches}$

Width of seven pencils = $2\dfrac58\text{ inches}=\dfrac{16+5}{8}\text{ inches}=\dfrac{21}{8}\text{ inches}$

Width of box is not taken up by pencils = Width of pencil box - Width of seven pencils

$\left \{ {{y=2} \atop {x=2}} \right. \dfrac{21}{4}-\dfrac{21}{8}\\\\=\dfrac{21\times2-21}{8}\\\\=\dfrac{21}{8}\text{ inches}=2\dfrac58\text{ inches}$

Width of box is not taken up by pencils = $2\dfrac58\text{ inches}$

Width of each pencil = (Width of seven pencils ) ÷ 7

$=\dfrac{21}{8}\div7\\\\=\dfrac{21}{8}\times\dfrac17\\\\=\dfrac38\text{ inches}$

Width of each pencil $=\dfrac38\text{ inches}$

Bess has $2.80 in quarters and dimes. The number of dimes is 7 less than the number of quarters. Find the number of quarters and

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

3 dimes and 10 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add 7 dimes, then the number of dimes and quarters is the same, and the total increases to $3.50. A dime and a quarter have a value together of $0.35. Since there are equal numbers, the value $3.50 must be made up of some quantity of groups with a value of $0.35. That number of groups must be ...

... $3.50/$0.35 = 10

Thus, there are 10 quarters and 10-7 = 3 dimes.

_____

<em>Using an equation</em>

Let q represent the number of quarters. Then the amount Bess has is ...

... 0.10(q -7) +0.25q = 2.80

... 0.35q - 0.70 = 2.80

... 0.35q = 3.50 . . . . . add 0.70 . . . . . . . this should look familiar

... q = 3.50/0.35 = 10
