20 less than12 times a number is 64, what is the number

Mathematics
1 answer:

20  <  12  ⋅  <em>x</em>  =  64

This is somewhat of a false equation though, due to  the left side  "20"  is not less than the right side  "12 ", which means that the given statement is false.

So I switched it up and made the variable "12"

<u>12  <  20  ⋅  </u><u><em>x</em></u><u>  =  64 </u>

12x - 20 = 64

12x = 64 + 20

12x = 84

12x⁄12 = 84⁄12  

x = 7

I hope this helps, as always. I wish you the best of luck and have a nice day, friend..

Answer plz !! Whats the contrapositive ?
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

It should be the first answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first answer says "If Nemo is a fish, then he swims". That makes sense. Then the second one says "If Nemo does swim, then he is a fish". That would make sense, but if my name was Nemo, I can swim. That doesn't mean I'm a fish. The the third one says "If Nemo is not a fish, then he doesn't swim". That doesn't make sense. Say my name is Nemo. I'm not a fish. I can swim though!

svp [43]
Your answer is: $3.15 each.

Here are the steps:

First, I added $2.82 and $1.43. Then, I subtracted the sum ($4.25) from $20. Lastly, I divided the difference($15.75) by five because there were five pineapples. Which gave me the answer: $3.15.

Find the perimeter of the polygon with the vertices X(−1, 3), Y(3, 0), and Z(−1,−2). Round your answer to the nearest hundredth
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

The perimeter of the polygon is P=14.47\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The perimeter is the sum of the length sides of the polygon

In this problem

P=XY+YZ+XZ

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}

step 1

Find the distance XY

we have

X(−1, 3), Y(3, 0)

substitute

d=\sqrt{(0-3)^{2}+(3+1)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{25}

dXY=5\ units

step 2

Find the distance YZ

we have

Y(3, 0), Z(−1,−2)

substitute

d=\sqrt{(-2-0)^{2}+(-1-3)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{20}

dYZ=4.47\ units

step 3

Find the distance XZ

we have

X(−1, 3), Z(−1,−2)

substitute

d=\sqrt{(-2-3)^{2}+(-1+1)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{25}

dXZ=5\ units

step 4

Find the perimeter

P=XY+YZ+XZ

P=5+4.47+5=14.47\ units
