Answer:
360 learners
Step-by-step explanation:
One way to solve these types of problems is that you could set up a proportion
learners/teachers = learners/teachers
Let x = no. of learners to enrol
30/1 = x/12
12(30) = x
x = 360 learners
Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem, we must simply solve for x. To do this, we will need equation operations, and the use of the distributive property.
Let's work this line by line until we have the value for x:
3{-x + (2x + 1)} = x - 1
3*-x + 3*(2x + 1) = x - 1
-3x + 6x + 3 = x - 1
3x + 3 = x - 1
2x = -4
x = -2
Now we can check our answer for x by plugging back into the original equation and see if the left hand side is equal to the right hand side:
3{-x + (2x + 1)} = x - 1
3{-(-2) + (2(-2) + 1)} ?= (-2) - 1
3{2 + (-4 + 1)} ?= -3
3{2 + (-3)} ?= -3
3{-1} ?= -3
-3 == -3
Thus, we have found the solution for x to be equivalent to negative 2.

this equation is not funcion.
Step-by-step explanation:
if u make a graph and u aline them with dots 2 or more dots will cross each other witch makes it not function:)
Answer:
3 years
Step-by-step explanation:
As with many age problems, you can reason it without equations. If Tom is 13 now, 2 years ago he was 11. If the total age of the two cats at that time was 15, then Tim was 15 -11 = 4.
That means Tim is now 4+2 = 6, so will be 9 in 3 years.

<em>Additional comment</em>
If you want to write equations, there are several ways you can do it. We often like to use variables to represent the current age. We can assign ...
x = Tim's current age; y = Tom's current age.
The sum of their ages 2 years ago was ...
(x -2) +(y -2) = 15
Tom's current age is 13, so we have y=13. Using that in the equation gives ...
x -2 +13 -2 = 15
x = 6 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 9, collect terms
That's Tim's current age, so Tim will be 9 years old in 3 years.
