Answer:

Equation is

           224=\frac{7}{8}x

Step-by-step explanation:

At the gym, Jasper was able to bench press 224 pounds, which was 7/8 of the weight that Balin was able to bench press.

Let  x be the weight that Balin could bench press.

We have

         224=\frac{7}{8}x\\\\x=\frac{8\times 224}{7}=256

That is

         x = 256

Equation is

           224=\frac{7}{8}x

I’m pretty sure that the correct equation, and the value of x is

Is 7/8= x/224; x = 196 pounds

A window is being replaced with tinted glass. The plan below shows the design of the window. Each unit length represents 1 foot.

Let us solve for the total area. In this problem, we solve area 1 (the rectangle in the middle) and the area 2 ( the two half circle on the sides).

Solve for area 1:
Area rec = L * W = 5units * 4 units = 20 squared units

Solve for area 2:
Area cir = pi *r² = 3.14 * (2 units)² = 12.56 squared units

Total area = 20 + 12.56 = 32.56 foot²
Total cost = 32.56 foot² * ($23/foot²) = $ 748.88

Total cost is $748.88.

How many millimeters are there in 16 meters
Anika [276]
One of the very nice features of the metric system of measurements is that there is a set of standardized prefixes that can be applied to any of the units. Some of the more common ones are
.. micro- . . . one millionth
.. milli- . . . . one thousandth
.. centi- . . . .one hundredth
.. kilo- . . . . .one thousand

Thus, one millimeter is 1/1000 = 0.001 meter. There are 1000 of them in 1 meter, so
.. 16 m = 16000 mm

Five less than two times a number is sixty-nine. A. 5 – 2t = 69 t = –32 B. 2t – 5 = 69 t = 37 C. 5 + 2t = 69 t = 32 D. none of t
Julli [10]

Let's translate the expression step by step:


"Five less than..." \to we will have to subtract five from something


"two times a number" \to 2t.


So, we have


"Five less than two times a number" \to 2t-5.


This "is sixty-nine", where "is" means "is equal to". So, the equation is


2t-5=69


which is option B

The minimum and maximum temperature on a cold day can be modeled by the equation 2[x-6]+14=38 What are the min and max temperatu
SashulF [63]
Here are the steps to calculating the given equation:

Distribute 2 to x and 6: 2x-12+14=38
Group like terms: 2x+(-12+14)=38
Combine like terms: 2x+2=38
Subtract number on 'x' side: 2x+2-2=38-2
Simplify: 2x=36
Divide: 2x/2=36/2
Simplify: x=18
Label with correct terms: 
I cannot do this because you did not provide sufficient information, I would need to know what the difference between the two, or if 'x' stood for one particular temperature. Hope that helped enough with what you provided.
