Two thirds of a number is equal to 20 what is the number

1 answer:

4 0

To solve this problem, we should set up an equation, letting the unknown number be represented by the variable x.

2/3x = 20

To solve this equation, we just have to divide both sides of it by 2/3, because we are trying to get the variable alone on the left side of the equation.

x = 30

Therefore, the number is 30.

Answer:

x = 109

Step-by-step explanation:

$(x + 12) \degree + 59 \degree = 180 \degree \\ (sum \: of \: exterior \: angles \: on \: same \: side \: \\ of \: transversal) \\ (x + 71) \degree = 180 \degree \\ x + 71 = 180 \\ x = 180 - 71 \\ \purple{ \bold{ x = 109}}$

Answer: the answer is 3

Step-by-step explanation: The gradient (or slope) of the tangent to a curve at any particular point is given by the derivative at that point If y = x 3 then d y d x = 3 x 2 When x = 1 ⇒ d y d x = 3 So the slope equals 3
