Answer:
g = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
miles / gallon = miles / gallon
104 / 4 = 78 / g
cross-multiply to solve for 'g':
78(4) = 104g
312 = 104g
312/104 = g
3 = g
Answer:
9 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Do the question algebraically, represented by this equation:
let x be the shorter piece
x + (x + 8) = 26 (longer piece is 8 units longer)
Remove brackets
x + x + 8 = 26 Combine like terms
2x + 8 = 26 Start isolating "x"
2x + 8 - 8 = 26 - 8 Subtract 8 from both sides
2x = 18
2x/2 = 18/2 Divide both sides by 2
x = 9 shorter piece
The shorter piece would be 9 inches.
If you needed the longer piece too:
longer piece = x + 8
x + 8
= 9 + 8
= 17
The longer piece would be 17 inches.
Check your answer:
Longer + Shorter = 26 Substitute the lengths
17 + 9 = 26 Add
26 = 26 same number
LS = RS left side equals right side
The answer is correct.
Answer: PEMDAS
8•2 = 16
16+3x = -7
-3 -3
16 + x = -10
-16 -16
X= -26
Step-by-step explanation:
A regular polygon with exterior angle of 7.2 degrees is a 50-gon.
<h3>Regular polygon</h3>
Regular polygon are polygon that are equiangular. This simply means they are polygon with equal angles.
The formula to find the number of sides of a polygon using exterior angle is as follows:
where
n = number of sides
Therefore,
7.2 = 360 / n
cross multiply
7.2n = 360
divide both sides by 7.2
n = 360 / 7.2
n = 50
The polygon has 50 sides. Therefore, it is a 50-gon
