Billions have 9 zeros
Hello! I would love to help!
Let's start with this part of the equation: "the sum of a number and seven"
Alright. We know that x represents an unknown number. Do you see a part of the equation that could translate to "an unknown number?"
I see "a number." So let's fill X in for "a number.
Alright. So now we have "the sum of x and 7."
Next, let's remember that sum means adding. So we just need to 7 to x
X+7
So, now instead of "the sum of a number and 7" we have x+7.
Alright. Now we just have to do the "twice." When it is asking for "twice", it is asking us to multiply our answer by two. But we need to multiply both x and 7. The best way to do that is to put our "x+7" in parenthesis and put a two outside.
2(x+7)
That's your answer! 2(x+7)
Hope this helped! Comment if you have any questions!
X = bessie and y = betty
x + y = 1464
y = 2x - 375
x + 2x - 375 = 1464
3x - 375 = 1464
3x = 1464 + 375
3x = 1839
x = 1839/3
x = 613 <== Bessie gave 613 gallons
y = 2x - 375
y = 2(613) - 375
y = 1226 - 375
y = 851 <== Betty gave 851 gallons
Answer:
See below ~
Step-by-step explanation:
Sides of a rhombus are equal.
⇒ QT = TS
⇒ x² - 4x - 10 = 6x + 14
⇒ x² - 10x - 24 = 0
⇒ x² + 2x - 12x - 24 = 0
⇒ x (x + 2) - 12 (x + 2) = 0
⇒ (x + 2)(x - 12) = 0
⇒ x = -2 or x = 12
Substitute both values and see which gives a positive value for QT :
<u>When x = -2</u> :
- QT = (-2)² - 4(-2) - 10
- QT = 4 + 8 - 10
- QT = 2
<u>When x = 12</u> :
- QT = (12)² - 4(12) - 10
- QT = 144 - 48 - 10
- QT = 86
The 2 possible answers are :
- x = -2, QT = 2
- x = 12, QT = 86
