Step-by-step explanation:
$41.70 / 6 = $6.95 for each box
• x+1.793= 2.42
x-1.793= 2.42-1.793 FALSE
• 5.25x = 15.75
Solve for x, by dividing both sides of the equation by 5.25
x = 15.75/5.25
x = 3 TRUE
• The equation x = 2.4 *11.62 can be rewritten as x = 11.62 * 2.4. TRUE
• The solution to the equation x + 9.43 = 16.09 is x = 6.66.
x+9.43 = 16.09
Subtract 9.43 from both sides of the euqation:
x-9.43+9.43= 16.09-9.43
x = 6.66 TRUE
Answer:
John is 17,
Susan is 14,
and Khalid is 9.
Step-by-step explanation:
a = John's age
b = Susan's age
c = Khalid's age
Let's set our rules from the given information.
a = b + 3
c = b - 5
a + b + c = 40
Now, we can solve for b through substitution.
(b + 3) + b + (b - 5) = 40
3b - 2 = 40
3b = 42
b = 14
So, now that we have Susan's age, we can follow the rules and see if it holds.
17 + 14 + 9 = 40 Viola!
