Answer:
<u>There were 12 gold coins in the chest at the start.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:
x = Number of gold coins in a chest
1/2x = Number of gold coins taken by the captain
1/4x = Number of gold coins taken by Sally
3 = Number of gold coins left
2. How many coins were in the chest at the start?
Let's write the following equation to solve for x:
1/2x + 1/4x + 3 = x
2x + x + 12 = 4x (Lowest Common Denominator is 4)
4x - 2x - x = 12 (Like terms)
x = 12
<u>There were 12 gold coins in the chest at the start.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:
here's your answer
Answer:
875
Step-by-step explanation:
lets assume the original amount X
the new amount = X - ( X × 40% )
525 = (60 × X) ÷ 100
X = ( 525 × 100 ) ÷ 60
<u>X = 875</u>
Since a cube is l x w x h, find the length of one side first:
∛8,000 = 20
The length of one side is 20 feet. This can represented as "s".
To find the area of one of the faces, use s²:
20² or 20 x 20 = 400
The area of one face is 400 ft²!
Answer:
x=35
Angle measurements of the triangle from least to greatest:
35,40,105
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.
So we know that 40+3x+x=180.
First step is to combine the like terms on the left hand side:
40+4x=180
Second step is to subtract 40 on both sides.
4x=140
Third step is to divide both sides by 4:
x=35
The angle that is given is the one that is 40 degrees.
So the angle whose measurement is x is really 35 degrees.
The angle whose measurement is 3x is real 3(35)=105 degrees.
In order from least to greatest we have:
35,40,105
