Answer:
8 and 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Two numbers are such that their difference, their sum, and their product are to
each other as 1:7:24. Their product must equal what number?
:
Two numbers a & b
Let x = the multiplier
:
a - b = 1x
a + b = 7x
a * b = 24x
:
Add the 1st two equations
a - b = x
a + b = 7x
2a = 8x
a = 4x
or
x = .25a
:
a * b = 24x
Replace 24x; a = 4x therefore:
a * b = 6a
b = 6
;
Using the 1st equation
a - b = 1x
Replace b with 6 and x with .25a
a - 6 = .25a
a - .25a = 6
.75a = 6
a =
a = 8
:
Find the multiplier
a - b = x
8 - 6 = 2
:
Check this
a - b = 2 (1*2)
a + b = 14; (7*2)
a * b = 48: (24*2)
:
The numbers are 8 and 6; their products = 48
Answer:
Kayla sold 90 boxes of cookies.
Step-by-step explanation:
let's have X be the number of boxes Kayla sold.
x⇒100%

x=90
Answer:
<em>5,078.401 </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
5,000 + 70 + 8 + 0.4 + 0.001 = <em>5,078.401</em>
Answer:
2x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
1/5(10x - 25)
Use the Distrubitve Property
1/5 * 10x = 2x
1/5 * 25 = 5
New equation is 2x - 5
It’s B.
If I’m wrong them uhh.. my bad?
