Answer: x=15

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x-5)+4x=5(x+3)

distribute

3x-15+4x=5x+15

combine like terms

7x-15=5x+15

add the 15 over to the right side

7x=5x+30

minus 5x over

2x=30

divide by 2

x=15

The difference of two numbers is 0.77. If the larger number is increased 5 times, then the difference becomes 77. Find the numbe
Lelu [443]

Let the two numbers are x and y

Let larger number = x

and smaller number = y

it means

x-y = 0.77

Now it says larger number is increased 5 times

So it now becomes 5x

So second equation becomes

5x -y =77

Now we have to solve these two equations

x-y = 0.77 and 5x-y = 77

multiply first equation by -1 and then add both equations

-x+y = -0.77

Now on adding we get

-x+5x +y -y = 77-0.77

4x = 76.23

Divide both sides by 4

x=19.0575

We get the larger number , now subtract 0.77 from this , we will get the smaller number

y=19.0575-0.77=18.2875

y=18.2875


Hence the larger number = 19.0575

Smaller number = 18.2875

Three consecutive numbers are such that when they are taken in increasing order and multiplied by 2,3and 4 respectively, they ad
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

7 , 8 , 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume three consecutive number are,

x , (x+1) , (x+2)

Multiplied by 2 ,3 and 4 respectively

2x , 3(x + 1) , 4(x + 2)

Sum of all = 74

So,

2x + 3(x + 1) + 4(x + 2) = 74

2x + 3x + 3 + 4x + 8 = 74

9x + 11 = 74

9x = 63

x = 7

So,

x , (x+1) , (x+2)

7 , (7+1) , (7+2)

7 , 8 , 9

Step-by-step explanation: If Tom finished the 100 meter race in 12.54 seconds that means he would have been going at an average of 7.97 seconds and if Sammy is finishing a 100 meter race in 25.98 seconds he would have been going at an average of 3.84. Therefore Sammy is going at a faster average.


Hope this helps!
