Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of orange jelly beans be x , as we do not know the exact value of it yet. There are 12 times as many green jelly beans than the orange ones. So , if the number of orange jelly beans is x , the number of green jelly beans will be = 12 times x , which can be written as 12x. Now there are a total of 1872 jelly beans , but they are either orange or green , so we already know that the number of orange jbs is x , and the number of green jelly beans is 12x. So if we the green jelly beans and orange jelly beans , it should be 1872.
Now all we need to do is to find x.
We know that ,
x + 12x = 1872
Now we add x and 12x on the left hand side
13x = 1872
Now we divide both sides by 13 to get x. (That includes 1872 as well)
x = 144
Now we have the value of x which is 144
We know that the number of green jelly beans was 12 times x
So the number of green jelly beans in numeric value is : 12 * 144
As x is equal to 144
Ans . : The number of green jelly beans is 1728.
Answer:
In basicallity if a question such as this pops up, the correct way to go would first be to graph this. y=x-4 would be equivalent to x=4.
My paper work is below:
y = x - 4
0 = x - 4
-x = -4
x = 4
Hope this helped..
Answer:
x=160°
since the sum of angles of the shape measures 540°
by summing up the values, we have
3x=480 divide both sides by 3
x=160°
