Answer:
A. y(3) + x = total cost
B. Shoe rental is $2.
Step-by-step explanation:
A. 4(3) + 2 = 14
B. If 4(3) = 12, and the total cost is $14. Then the shoes cost $2.
4(3) = 12 + 2 = 14
Answer:
I would set this up as:
let: lesser number = x
greater number = 2x + 5
Restating the word problem:
lesser number + greater number = 38
x + 2x + 5 = 38
Solving: 3x + 5 = 38
- 5 -5
---------------
3x = 33
--- ---
3 3
x = 11
Substitution for the greater number:
2(11) + 5
22 + 5
27
This should be the answer.
0 is in the hundredths place
1 is in the hundreds place
4 is in the ones place
3 is in the tenths place
6 is in the tens place
9 is in the hundred-thousands place
