Let

a-------> one of the numbers

b------> the other number

we know that

a+b=x ----> equation A

a=12

substitute the value of a in the equation A

12+b=x

solve for b

Subtract 12 from both sides

12+b-12=x-12

b=x-12

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

The other number is x-12

12+y=x \\&#10;y=x-12

The other number is x-12.

How do you do this problem
Ainat [17]
So the problem has no symbols, but we're going to multiply because the fraction on the left is right next to the parentheses. 

-5/2 * 1/10x = -5x/20

I put "x" next to the 5 because the "x" counts as part of the numerator. Now that it's 5x over 20 that equals one, I'd first reduce -5x/20 into -x/4, then do

-x/4 * -4 = 1 * -4

To make the "x" side equal one, we have to multiply both sides by -4, to make both sides equal. 

x = -4.

Digiron [165]

Answer:

2.25 or 2 1/4 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

if you add them all up (I converted them to decimals when adding) you get 13.5 or 13 1/2 if your using fractions, then you divide that by 6 because thats how many jars there are and you get 2.25 or 2 1/4
