Step-by-step explanation:
x = number
3x - 15 = (x - 12)×-4 or (12-x)×-4
3x - 15 = -4x + 48 or -48 + 4x
7x = 63, x = 9 or
33 = x
Answer:
18.16
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: It would be area, because it involves multiplying length by width, therefore covering the inside
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a = 2
b = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
(ar^b)^4 = 16r^20 ; a and b are positive integers :
Opening the bracket :
a^4r^4b = 16r^20
a^4 = 16 - - - - - (1)
r^4b = r^20 - - - (2)
a^4 = 16
Take the 4th root of both sides :
(a^4)^(1/4) = 16^1/4
a = 2
From (2)
r^4b = r^20
4b = 20
Divide both sides by 4
4b/4 = 20/4
b = 5
Hence ;
a = 2
b = 5
8/9 - 1/5
= 5(8/9)-9(1/5)
=(40/45)-(9/45)
=31/45
therefore 31/45 of the estate would go to the American cancer society
