Answer:
w=5h-8
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the original formula h=(1/5)w+(8/5)
Subtract -8/5 on both sides to isolate the w, so h-8/5=(1/5)w
Now you have to get rid of the 1/5, so multiply 5(h-8/5), the 5 in the 8/5 cross each other out. You are left with 5h-8
Answer:
14 years old
Explanation:
Use this system of equations if G=George and J=Jeannie:
G-12=J
50=(G+5)+(J+5)
So, change second equation becomes
40-G=J
Then use substitution:
G-12=40-G
2G=52
G=26
Then, to find Jeannie’s age, go back to one of the equations and substitute G.
26-12=J
So, J=14
Jeannie is currently 14 years old.
Answer:
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Start with adding 2 to -7
-7 + 2
=-5
Then divide by 5
-5/5
=-1
$60.71! Add $35 and $22 together, which is $57. Multiply that by 6.5% (0.065), which produces 3.705, which rounds down to $3.71. Add $3.71 to $57, and voila!
