Answer:
To solve the equation, you have to to isolate the variable. So, first you subtract both sides by 7.
x +7 - 7 = -2 - 7
When you simplify further,
x = -9.
Hope this helps! :)
Question:
The options are
A. area
B. height
C. volume
D. perimeter
Answer:
The correct option is;
C. volume
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we note that the size of the unit cube is 1 cubic unit
When the box is filled with the unit cubes the total number of unit cubes represent the volume capacity of the box into which the number of nit cubes are placed.
The volume is a quantity that is also represented by the product of the length, width and height dimensions of the cube.
• So we know that.....
x represent bags of snack and y is bottles of water.
This equations shows the total amount and the cost of each water bottle and snack:
20.00 = 2.50x + 1.00y
Total: $20.00
Snack: $2.50
Water Bottle: $1.00
And this question shows the total items:
11 = x + y
Which there will be some snack + some water bottle = 11 items
—————————————————————
• Now I’m going to first solve for x, which is the amount of bags of snack.
I will use the equation, 11 = x + y.
(First, we’ll subtract y from both side, since we’re solving for x [UNDO])
11 = x + y
-y = - y
_______
11 - y = x —> so x is equal to 11 minus y.
—————————————————————
• Now we’re going to plug the 11 - y as x in the equation: 20.00 = 2.50x + 1.00y to solve for y.
20.00 = 2.50 (11 - y) + 1.00y
20.00 = 27.5 - 2.50y + 1.00y (Distributed)
20.00 = 27.5 - 1.50y (Combine like terms)
20.00 = 27.5 - 1.50y
-27.5 = -27.5 (Subtract -27.5 both side)
——————————
-7.5 = - 1.50y
-7.5 = -1.50y
—— ——— (Divide both side by -1.50)
- 1.50 = -1.50
5 = y
y is equals to 5, which means that there are 5 water bottles.
Now we know there are 11 items total and because there are 5 water bottles, there will be 6 bags of snacks. 11-5=6
—————————————————————
ANSWER:
They bought 6 bags of snacks! :)
