Answer: b.14
Step-by-step explanation:
We have two shelves, the top shelf 
and the bottom shelf 
.
Now, firstly we are told the top shelf has 10 more than 1/3 the number of books on the bottom shelf. This can be expressed as:
(1)
Then, we are told there are 12 books on the bottom shelf:
(2)
Substituting (2) in (1):
(3)
(4)
(5) This is the number of books on the top shelf
Hence, the correct option is b.
Answer:
4:20
Step-by-step explanation:
because there are 20 teachers in all and 4 science teachers so your chances of getting a science teacher are 4 out of 20
Answer:
x = -5
y = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
If you multiply the top equation by negative 2, you can add it to the bottom equation and cancel out the x:
-2(-x + 5y = -20) --> 2x - 10y = 40
Add this to the bottom equation top to bottom:
2x - 10y = 40
-2x + 4y = -10
You get:
-6y = 30
Then solve for y:
y = -5
Plug this back in for either equation and solve for x:
-x + 5(-5) = -20
-x -25 = -20
-x = 5
x = -5
Your answers are:
x = -5
y = -5
Both the pies at first have 360* as their initial complete angles.
The Cherry Pie is cut into 6 parts equal and the angular width of each piece will be 360/6=60*...therefore, each piece is 60*.
the Apple Pie is cut into 8 parts and the angle of each piece would be 360/8=45*...therefore, each piece is 45*.
Now the angular difference between the pieces of the 2 pies is 60*-45* = 15*.
Therefore the Cherry pie's piece is 15* greater than the Apple pie's piece.
Correct Question:
Explain how you know that 88 is a solution to the equation 1/8x =11 by completing the sentences:
The word "solution" means . . .
88 is a solution to 1/8x=11 because . . .
Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
✔️The word solution means the value of the unknown variable, x. This means, when the value of x is substituted into the equation, the equation becomes balance as the value on the left equals the value on the right.
✔️88 is a solution to ⅛x = 11 because:
if we substitute x for 88 into the equation, both sides would be equal.
Thus:
⅛×88 = 11
11 = 11
