The answer is x=3.6 or 3 3/5.
First we convert the decimal answer to a fraction; 0.9 is read as "nine tenths," so the corresponding fraction is 9/10:
1 5/6 - (x - 7/12) + 2 1/12 = 9/10
Now we find a common denominator. The first thing that 6, 12 and 10 will all divide into is 60:
1 50/60 - (x - 35/60) + 2 5/60 = 54/60
Distributing the negative, we have:
1 50/60 - x + 35/60 + 2 5/60 = 54/60
Combining like terms, we have:
-x + 4 30/60 = 54/60
Subtracting 4 30/60 from each side, we have:
-x + 4 30/60 - 4 30/60 = 54/60 - 4 30/60
-x = -3 36/60
Divide both sides by -1:
-x/-1 = (-3 36/60)/-1
x = 3 36/60 = 3 3/5 = 3.6
Answer:
I cannot not give the correct solution, need more context. How many children are there, how many adults are in the family? So I will explain in my explanation.
Step-by-step explanation:
If more context were given, for example:<em> 2 adults and 2 children.</em>
Then the bakers would have bought 2 adult tickets for ___ each
Then the bakers would have bought 3 children's tickets for ___ each
So using what we know we can create an equation:
<em>2A+3C=28</em>,<em> </em>
meaning 2 adult tickets plus 3 children's tickets costs a total of $28.
So we divide 28 by 5, which is the total amount of tickets.
28/5=5.6
So to figure the cost of children's tickets multiply the cost by amount.
3*$5.6=$16.8, C=16.8
To figure out the cost of the adults tickets multiple the cost by the amount.
2*$5.6=$11.2, A=11.2
a) the bakers would have bought <u>2</u> adult tickets for <u>5.6</u> each.
b) the bakers would have bought <u>3</u> children's tickets for <u>5.6</u> each.
96/4. You should get the answer by dividing 96 by 4.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The surface area of a square pyramid is the sum of the area of the squared base + 4 times the area of each triangular face, therefore:
where:
is the area of the base, where
L is the length of the base
is the area of each triangular face, where
h is the height of the face
Substituting,
For the model in this problem,
L = 12
h = 8
Therefore, the surface area here is:
Number one would be 13 because you have to add the x to both sides which will leave you with 2x=26 then you have to divide by 2 and you will get x=13. Number two is 7 7/8 because you have to add the 1/3x to the other 1/3x to get 2/3x= 5 1/4 so then you divide both sides by 2/3 and to divide a fraction you do keep change flip so it would be 21/4 times 3/2 which would be 63/8 which simplifys to 7 7/8.
