Answer:
2x - 0.4x ;
8x/5 ;
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let number of miles = x
Arlene:
Double number of miles = 2 * x = 2x
Subtract 20% of the result :
2x - 20% of 2x ;
2x - 0.4x
Raul:
Divides Number of miles by 5 ; x / 5
Multiplies result by 8 ;
8 * (x/5) = 8x /5
To know if expressions are equivalent :
Let x = 10 miles
Using Arlene's expression:
2x - 0.4x
x = 10
2(10) - 0.4(10) = 16
Using Raul's expression :
8x / 5
(8*10) / 5
80/5
= 16
Since they give the same result, we can conclude that the expression are equivalent
That is just absolute value, basically what it means is take off whatever sign there was attached to it (such as a negative sign)
Answer:
x = 60
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall: one of the properties of a parallelogram is that consecutive angles are supplementary. This means they add up to given 180°
2x and x are consecutive angles. Therefore:
2x + x = 180
3x = 180
Divide both sides by 3
3x/3 = 180/3
x = 60
Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>120</u> is equal to 1 and <u>30</u> is also equal to 1
2*60 30
