Hey there!!
Let's take the number as x and y
Given,
The sum of x and y = 12
One number is 2 more than the other
Let's take y = x + 2
Equations
x + y = 12
As we know y = x + 2 , plug the value in
x + x + 2 = 12
2x + 2 = 12
Subtract 2 on both sides
2x = 10
Divide by 5 on both sides
x = 5
y = 2 + x
y = 7
The numbers are 5 and 7
Hope my answer helps!
Answer: The customer should buy Giana’s jewelry box.
Step-by-step explanation:
The jewelry boxes are rectangular prisms, in order to find the box that would hold the most amount of jewelry we need to find the volumes of each box.
V= l.w.h
Katherine’s box: 5x5x5= 125
Giana’s box: 10x12x2= 240
Jackson’s box: 10x5x4= 200
Add all 5 numbers together then divide it by five and that will give you your answer
Answer:
3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of males to females in a cycling club is 5:3.
1/3 of the males are under 18
2/9 of the females are under 18
The fraction of the club members that are under 18 is calculated as:
Male: Female = Male/Female
We are told in the above question:
1/3 of the males are under 18
2/9 of the females are under 18
Hence:
1/3 / 2/9
= 1/3 ÷ 2/9
= 1/3 × 9/2
= 3/2
The fraction of the club members that are under 18 is 3/2
Answer:
Ted is correct. Maggie made mistakes while trying to isolate x for both equations.
Step-by-step explanation:
For 3x-2=0, in order to move -2 to the left side, Maggie had to add 2 on both sides because -2+2=0. The same problem is seen for x+5=0. Maggie had to subtract 5 on both sides because +5-5=0
