4+2x = x (x = student in smaller group)
4 + 2x + x = 28 (total # of students)
4+ 3x = 28
3x = 24
x = 8
8 students in the smaller group
4 + 2(8) = 20 students in the larger group
Answer: same
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 3/2 or 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
6 - 2x = 3
(You have to subtract 6 on both sides so it can cancel out)
6 - 6 - 2x = 3 - 6
-2x = -3
(Now, you divide -2 on both sides to isolate the x)
-2/(-2)x = -3/(-2)
x = 3/2
Answer: 120, 60, 180
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Area of a rectangle's formula is:
l × w
So, looking at the diagram, we get:
6 × 20 = 120 cm²
2) Area of a trapezoid's formula is:
× h (where both a and b are the different base lengths)
So, looking at the diagram, we get:
× 4 = 60 cm²
3) Add both to find the area of the entire figure.
120 + 60 = 180 cm²
