Mathematics

tatuchka [14]3 years ago

3f + 2g = 30 . . .(1)
f + 2g = 26 . . . .(2)

(1) - (2) => 2f = 4 => f = 4/2 = 2

From (2), 2 + 2g = 26 => 2g = 26 - 2 = 24 => g = 24/2 = 12

Therefore, f = 2 and g = 12

At a concert 2/5 of the people were men, there were 3 times as many women as children. If there were 45 more men than children,
Bogdan [553]

This involves creating some equations.

First, these are what the letters I used stand for:

c = children

w = women

m = men

x = total population

Then, we must make an equation for each statement.

2/5x = m (2/5 of the people are men)

3c = w (there are 3 times as many women than children)

45+c = m (there are 45 more men than children)

Now, let's start plugging in our numbers:

x = all the men, women, and children

2/5(m+w+c) = m

2/5 (45+c +3c + c) = m     [Now simplify]

2/5 (45 + 5x) = m       [Now Distribute]

2/5(45) + (2/5)(5x) = m

2c + 18 = m    [Above we stated that there were the same amount as men as c +45]

2c + 18 = 45 +c     [Now set equal to c]

2c (-c) +18 = 45 +c (-c)

c+18 (-18) = 45 (-18)

c = 27

Now that we know that there was 27 children, we can plug 27 in for c in the other equations.

MEN = 27 + 45

WOMEN = 3(27)

CHILDREN = 27

Now add those three answers to find your total!

Solve -9m-4+2m = -9-7m+5, and interpret the results.
Drupady [299]

Answer:

-9m - 4 + 2m = -9 - 7m + 5

-7m - 4 = -7m - 4

-7m + 7m = -4 + 4

0 = 0

This is an identity solution because the same number equals the same number. That means there's an infinite set of solutions.

Solve for c in a+b+c=180
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

c = -a - b + 180

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the c. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the  other. Subtract a and b from both sides

a (-a) + b (-b) + c = 180 (-a) (-b)

c = 180 - a - b

c = -a - b + 180 is your answer
