3w +2 =7w
-3w -3w
2=4w
Divide each side by 4
1/2=w
Check your answer:
3 (1/2) + 2 = 7 (1/2)
(3/2) + (4/2) = (7/2)
(7/2) = (7/2)
Hope this helps.
You can use this to help you. label the triangle like the picture and use the equations. I hope this helps.
Answer
It takes two steps to solve this problem. Step 1, you must solve the binomial squared. Then combine similar terms.
The number is = 10x+y
if reverse the digits, the number is: 10y+x
The sum fo its digits is = x+y=5
I suggest this system of equations:
(10y+x)-(10x+y)=27 ⇒9y-9x=27
x+y=5
We can solve this system of equations by equaliztion method
x=5-y
9y-9(5-y)=27
9y-45+9y=27
18y=27+45
18y=72
y=72/18
y=4
x=5-y
x=5-4=1
The number is: 10x+y=10(1)+4=14
Answer: the number is 14
