Answer:
2<em>x </em>+ 7 = 25
<em>x </em>= 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Gary: 25
Sean: <em>x</em>
----------------------------
Let's break down the sentence into mathematical terms
Gary <u>is</u> 25 years old. That <u>is</u> 7 more than twice <u>Sean's age.</u>
In math, is means equal to. It is represented with an equal sign (=)
Gary = 25. 25 = 7 more than twice <u>Sean's age.</u>
7 more is represented by 7 +
Gary = 25. 25 = 7 + than twice <u>Sean's age.</u>
Twice means double which is 2 ·
Gary = 25. 25 = 7 + 2 · <u>Sean's Age</u>
<u>Sean's Age</u> will be represented by <em>x</em>
Gary = 25. 25 = 7 + 2<em>x</em>
We don't need it to say<em> "Gary = 25" </em>in our equation.
25 = 7 + 2<em>x</em>
Let's rewrite it with the associative property.
2<em>x </em>+ 7 = 25
---------------------
Now, solve
2<em>x </em>+ 7 = 25
<em>-7 -7</em>
2<em>x</em> = 18
<em>÷</em><em>2 </em><em>÷</em><em>2</em>
<em>x </em>= 7
----------------------
Sean is 7 years old.
The answer would be (C).
To be fully simplified, the numerator and denominator must have a GCF of 1.
Answer (C) says 3/57. However, using the divisibility rule of 3 (add the digits together, and if the sum is a multiple of 3, then the number is as well), we see that 57 is divisible by 3, meaning this fraction is not simplified. The simplified version would be 1/19.
Answer:
4/5 divided by 4 is 1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
9) x = 5
10) x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
9) 6^2 + x^2 = 8^2
- 36 + x^2 = 64
- 36 - 36
_______________
x^2 = 28
Square root them
Squareroot x^2 is x
Square root 28 is 5.29 round is 5
so x = 5
*Correct me if im wrong*
10) 3^2 + x^2 = 5^2
9 + x^2 = 25
- 9 - 9
____________________
x^2= 16
Square root them
square root of x ^2 is x and square root of 16 is 4
so x = 4
Answer:
Assuming the leak took 2 hours to fix, the original height of the pool is 5 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is probably the most simple "high school" problem I've seen in a while. All you have to do is move the negative 0.25 to the other side to isolate x. That gives you 4.75 + 0.25, or 5 feet.
