Answer:
40 and 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say these numbers are 5x and 2x.
Their sum is 56, so
5x + 2x = 56
7x = 56
x = 8
Now substitute the unknown value with 8.
5 · 8 = <u>40</u>,
2 · 8 = <u>16</u>
Answer:
3. Likely
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 4535
Step-by-step explanation:
she has 17 slik roses already, and 6 friends give her 3 silk roses each, so that's 6 times 3, which makes 18, and 17 plus 18 is 35, so she has 35 silk roses in all.
Our first step is to get rid of the fraction by multiplying both sides by 3.
So in our second step we have x - 4 > -36.
Now add 4 to both sides to get <em>x > -32</em>.
Since <em>x</em> is greater than -32, the values that would
make this inequality true are -31 and 31.
