I would find the area of the shape as if it were a rectangle (5x9) and then subtract the area of two triangles (1/2x2x2.5)
Let x be the number.
"twelve decreased by twice a number" ---> 12 - 2x
"8 times the sum of number and 4" ---> 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8x + 32 (distributive property)
12 = 10x + 32 (add 2x to both sides)
-20 = 10x (subtract 32 from both sides)
x = -2 (divide both sides by 10)
Answer:
x = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
given that y varies directly with x
mathematically we can express this as
y = k x , where k is a constant
step 1: find k
given x = 3 and y = 21
y = k x
21 = k (3)
k = 7
hence the equation becomes
y = 7 x
when y = 105,
105 = 7x
x = 105 / 7 = 15
