Subtract 9 from each side of the equation. so you would get 1<x. meaning that any number larger then 1 would correctly solve the equation.
3sqrt(2)
You can either use Pythagorean theorem or special triangle proportions to find the side that is parallel to z. Since in a 45-45-90 degree triangle, the hypotenuse is the leg times the square root of 2, and the hypotenuse is 3, we know that the leg is 3/sqrt(2) which is equal to 3 sqrt(2) / 2. Since z is twice this length, we know that z is equal to 2 x 3sqrt(2)/2 = 3sqrt(2)
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number = x
7x + 1 = 5x + 25 Subtract 5x from both sides.
7x - 5x + 1 = 5x - 5x + 25 Combine
2x + 1 = 25 Subtract 1 from both sides.
2x + 1 - 1 = 25-1 Combine
2x = 24 Divide by 2
2x/2 = 24/2
x = 12
To find how much each person will get, you have to divide the amount available by the people. There are 2 ways I believe we can do this.
First way
Let's divide.
2÷9= 2/9
Each person would get 2/9 of a gallon if they shared it.

Second way
I believe it would be easier to convert this into cups. There are 16 cups per gallon.
16×2= 32
Let's divide that by 9.
32÷9= 3 5/9 cups per person.
