First, mentally add the whole numbers.
4+3+5=12
Now, look at the fractions. 1/8, 2/3, and 1/2.
2/3 is bigger than 1/2, so you can add in another whole number.
12+1=13
1/8 is tiny, and won't add a whole lot to the mix, so just leave that.
A reasonable estimate would be 13 1/8
Answer:
x=-2 y=7
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the two numbers be x and y.
According to your question;
x + y = 7
10y + x = 10x + y + 9
By equation 1 ; x = 7-y
Substituting the value of x ;
10y + ( 7 -y) = 10(7-y) + y + 9
9y + 7 = 70 -10y + y + 9
9y + 7 = 70 - 9y + 9
=> 18y = 70 -7 + 9
=> 18y = 72
=> y = 4
Substituting for x ;
x = 7 - y
=> x = 7 -4
=> x = 3
Thus, x = 3 and y = 4;
=> The number is 34.
The x value when everything is solved or when the all of the x's are combined?
