The correct answer is 58/7 (decimal: 8,28....)
Hi,
Let Sydney's age be x.
Devaughn=(x-15)
x+(x-15)=37
x+x-15=37
2x-15=37
2x=37+15
2x=52
x=52/2
x=26
Sydney is 26 years old.
Hope this Helps you.
Answer:
ok so this problem you are basically just rearranging it. you're going to want y by itself.
Step-by-step explanation:
let's start with the original equation: 5-y=1/3x +12
so first you have to move the five over, so you subtract 5 from both sides. -y=1/3x+12-5
then you subtract the 5 from the twelve since they're like terms: -y=1/3x+7
and finally you have to move the negative over. when you move the negative think of it like dividing negative one from both sides, everything on the other side has to get the negative.
so we're left with y=-1/3x-7
I hope this helps!
The answer is 11
Explaination:
9/14 multiple both numbers by 3=27/42
Break 2 1/3 into 2 and 1/3
1/3 multiple both numbers but 14=14/42
27/42 x 14/42 keep number on the bottom the same
27x14= 378
Divide 378/42=9
Add the 2 from 2 1/3 to the nine
2+9=11
