Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
Set it up as the following -
3:8 = x:24.
Now cross multiply - 3 * 24 = 8x
72 = 8x
Now divide both sides by 8.
9 = x
Answer:
21.2 square meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a parallelogram is base • height.
So:
1. Calculate the area of what you can get for $50. 5 • 212 = 1060 square meters.
2. Now you divide the first price ($50) by the desired price ($1). This one is easy because 50 / 1 = 50, but I'm putting this here for future reference in case you need to solve a problem that has a desired price that's greater than $1.
3. Divide the answer to step one by the answer to step two to get the area you can have painted for $1. 1060 / 50 = 21.2 square meters.
3(x+2)
Distribute and multiply
3 to x and 2 to get 3x+6
The answer is 3x+6
To solve for x, first you need to isolate all x terms on the same side so:
you start with 5 + 4x = 54 - 3x
subtract 5 from both sides to get 5 onto the left side
now you should have 4x = 49 - 3x
now add 3x to both sides to get 3x onto the right side
now you should have 7x = 49
now that you have your x on one side you can solve this like a regular one step equation and divide both sides by 7
this leads you to your answer of x = 7
hope this helps!
