Let the number be x.
x/3 + 12 = 46
Subtract 12 from both sides and you will get:
x/3 = 34
Multiply both sides by 3:
x = 102
Number of students who have sent a text message only is given by the difference between those that have sent a text message and those that have done both.
i.e. Number of students who has sent a text message only = 58 - 12 = 46
Number of students who have uploaded a selfie only is given by the
difference between those that have uploaded a selfie and those that
have done both.
i.e. Number of students who have uploaded a selfie only = 21 - 12 = 9
The total number of students surveyed is 70.
Let the number of students who have neither sent a text message nor taken a selfie today be x, then
46 + 9 + 12 + x = 70
67 + x = 70
x = 70 - 67 = 3
Therefore, 3 students neither sent a text message nor taken a selfie today.
The number of students that have sent a text message or have taken a selfie today is given by the sum of the number of students that have sent a text message and the number of students that have taken a selfie less the number of people that have done both.
i.e. number of students that have sent a text message or have taken a selfie today = 58 + 21 - 12 = 67.
Answer:
x = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
1.1 Pull out like factors :
2x - 20 = 2 • (x - 10)
Equation at the end of step 1 :
Step 2 :
Equations which are never true :
2.1 Solve : 2 = 0
This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.
Solving a Single Variable Equation :
2.2 Solve : x-10 = 0
Add 10 to both sides of the equation :
x = 10
One solution was found :
x = 10
