Solve for x X=20-y 7x-8=y

Mathematics
1 answer:
konstantin123 [22]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x= 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the variable x with what it's equal to, x= 20-y

7(20-y)-8= y

Distribute into the parenthesis.

140-7y-8= y

Subtract common numbers.

(140-8)-7y= y

132-7y= y

Move the constant to the right.

132-7y= y

-132        -132

-7y= y-132

Subtract y to both sides.

-7y= y-132

-y    -y

-8y= -132

Divide to both sides by -8

<u>-8y</u>= <u>-132</u>

-8      -8

y= 16.5

Now, add the y value to the equation.

x= 20- (16.5)

x= 3.5

Can someone help me on this
barxatty [35]

A) as the exponent decreases by one, the number is divided by 5

B) as the exponent decreases by one, the number is divided by 4

C) as the exponent decreases by one, the number is divided by 3

D) 4⁰ = 4 ÷ 4 = 1

    4⁻¹ = 1 ÷ 4 = \frac{1}{4}

    4⁻² = \frac{1}{4} ÷ 4 = \frac{1}{16}

E) 3⁰ = 3 ÷ 3 = 1

    3⁻¹ = 1 ÷ 3 = \frac{1}{3}

    3⁻² = \frac{1}{3} ÷ 3 = \frac{1}{9}

Jackie bought a 3-pack of tubes of glue. She used 0.27 ounce of the glue from the 3-pack
brilliants [131]

Answer:

0.54 ounces in each tube

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the amount she used so we can add it in. 1.35+0.27= 1.62. Then divide it by the number of tube and since it was a 3 pack you divide it by 3. 1.62/3=0.54 so there is 0.54 ounces in each tube.
