Hey there! Hello!
I believe what this question (more of a statement) is asking is to identify what a letter that represents an unknown number is called. Most of the time, i refer to it as just a variable, or an unknown variable. It can also be referred to as just an unknown value.
Feel free to ask me any additional questions if you have any! :-)
Basically make a plot that has no correlation (the points are all random and don't mean anything)
5 and 2/7 would be closer to the whole number 5 than 6
Your answer would be 5
Glad to assist!
Answer:
BC = 6.8
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance from A to B, then from B to C, is the same distance as from A to C.
Thus,
AB + BC = AC
AB = 8x + 8
BC = 4x + 2
AC = 22
AB + BC = AC
(8x + 8) + (4x + 2) = 22
Expanding the parenthesis:
8x + 8 + 4x + 2 = 22
8x + 4x + 8 + 2 = 22
12x + 12 = 22
Subtracting 12 from both sides:
12x = 10
Dividing both sides by 12:
x = 10/12 = 1.2
x = 1.2
We're looking for BC. As we know,
BC = 4x + 2
Let's now put in x = 1.2 into this equation:
BC = 4x + 2
BC = 4 * 1.2 + 2
Since 4 * 1.2 is 4.8:
BC = 4.8 + 2
BC = 6.8
Answer: BC = 6.8
There are 4 quarterly inches in 1 inch so 4 x7=28 + 3 quarter in 3/4 so 31 quarter inches in all.
