first what quantities do we need to talk about?
the problem speaks of “a number”, let’s call that number x.
now write the equation that relates x to the other numbers we know.
the first clue is the word “difference”.
this means “subtraction”, but we need to subtract something from something else.
what are the two somethings? ”a number times 7” and “4”.
so, since we have a name for “a number”, let’s translate this as x*7 - 4 what else do we know?
it says the difference is 9. So complete the equation x*7 - 4 = 9 if we rewrite this cosmetically, 7x - 4 = 9
i assume that you know how to solve this for x.
so then wehn solving 7x - 4 =9 we take -4 change it to +4 so then +9 we go and get 13
7x = 13
7/7 = 13/7
x= 13/7
Answer:
I think it should be b
Step-by-step explanation:
B is the answer I think
Answer: 3.1
Step-by-step explanation:
252 will most likely support it because if you simplify 30 over 50 then u get 3 over 5, then 5 divided by 420 is 84. If you multiply 84 by 3 then you get 252
