Answer:
43
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
The unit digit = x
The tens digit = y
The number = 10x + y
The tens digit of a two-digit number is five more than the units digit.
y = x + 5
Seven times the sum of the digits of this number is 3 less than the number itself.
7(x + y) = 10x + y - 3
7x + 7y = 10x + y - 3
Find the number.
We substitute x + 5 for y
7x + 7(x + 5) = 10x + (x + 5) - 3
7x + 7x + 35 = 10x + x + 5x - 3
14x + 35 = 11x + 5x - 3
Collect like terms
35 + 3 = 11x + 5x -14x
38 = 16x - 14x
38 = 2x
x = 38/2
x = 19
Solving for y
y = x + 5
y = 19 + 5
y = 24
The number = 19 + 24
= 43
Answer:
7 lawns
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- Airfare = $198
- Transportation = $56
- Food = $45 per day
- Length of trip = 4 days
⇒ Total cost of trip = airfare + transportation + 4 x food
= 198 + 56 + (4 x 45)
= $434
Given:
⇒ Amount to make from mowing lawns = total cost of trip - savings
= 434 - 189
= $245
Therefore, he needs to make $245 from mowing lawns to have enough money to pay for the trip.
Given:
- Amount earned per lawn mowed = $35
⇒ number of lawns = amount needed ÷ amount earned per lawn
= 245 ÷ 35
= 7
So he needs to mow 7 lawns to have enough money to pay for the trip.
Answer:
First one: x = all real numbers
Second one: x = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
for the first one
given 8x+10=2(4x+5) we need to isolate the variable (x) using inverse operations
step 1 distribute the 2 to what is in the parenthesis ( 4x and 5 )
2 * 4x = 8x
5 * 2 = 10
now we have 8x + 10 = 8x + 10
step 2 subtract 8x from each side
8x - 8x = 0
8x - 8x = 0
now we have 10 = 10
subtract 10 from each side
10 - 10 = 0
10 - 10 = 0
we're left with 0 = 0 meaning that all real numbers are solutions
For the second one
given 3x-8=2(x-4) once again we need to isolate the variable using inverse operations
step 1 distribute the 2 to what is in the parenthesis (x - 4)
2 *x = 2x
2 * -4 = -8
now we have 3x - 8 = 2x - 8
step 2 add 8 to each side
-8 + 8 = 0
-8 + 8 = 0
now we have 2x = 3x
step 3 subtract 2x from each side
3x - 2x = x
2x - 2x = 0
we're left with x = 0
2/4? 4/8? .5? All mean 1/2. Also one half.
