Seven fewer than a number is n-7
Both 52 and 5x-8 are equal to each other due to being parral.
SO 5x-8=52
Add both sides.
8+8 52+8= 60
5x 60
Now divide both sides by 5 and you get 12=x Hope this helps!
Answer:
The child has 6 dimes and 5 quarters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let q and d represent the number of quarters and of dimes respectively.
Then q + d = 11 (Equation A), and ($0.25/quarter)q + ($0.10/dime)d = $1.85 (Equation B).
Multiply the 2nd equation by 100 to remove the decimal fractions:
25q + 10d = 185 (Equation C)
Now multiply the 1st equation by -10 to obtain -10q - 10d = -110 (Equation D), and combine this result with Equation C:
-10q - 10d = -110
25q + 10d = 185
--------------------------
15q = 75, and so q = 75/15 = 5.
According to Equation A, q + d = 11. Replacing q with 5, we get:
5 + d = 11, and so d = 6.
The child has 6 dimes and 5 quarters.
Answer:
l = A/w
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 'A' equal area. If the formula for the area of a rectangle is A = lw, you need to get 'h' alone. Divide 'h' by 'l' and by V to get the answer, l = A/w.
She owes him $0.75 because if she paid him $1.50 already you just subtract that from $2.25
