Set up an equation.

x+x+4=22

the varibles x are the unknown number of boxes. the first x is Chris amount and the second is Seans amount.

Isolate the variable:

x+x+4=22

2x+4=22

2x=18

x=9

Chris has 9 boxes.

Add 4 to the variable to get Seans amount:

9+4=13

Sean has 13 boxes

To check your answer add the results together to get the correct sum.

9+13=22

Find the value of x .
ohaa [14]

Answer:

x=18

Step-by-step explanation:

(4x-11)\\(2x+25)

According to the Alternate Exterior Angles Theorem, "when two lines are cut by a transversal, the resulting alternate exterior angles are congruent."

This means that the two expressions above are to be set equal to each other because they are representative of two alternate exterior angles, which are congruent:

4x-11=2x+25

Add 11 to both sides of the equation:

4x=2x+36

Subtract 2x from both sides of the equation:

2x=36

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of x, which is 2:

x=18

~

Check your work by substituting 18 for x in the initial equation:

4(18)-11=2(18)+25

61=61

It's correct!

What is a decimal point
hodyreva [135]
A decimal point is a dot or period that is placed after a whole number. Every number has a decimal point. For example, 1.243 has one. Also, 5. has a decimal point. They are just sometimes invisible. When you use a decimal point, it means that the number has a part of something added to it.

Use matrix addition to solve this equation: B + 15 −7 4 0 1 2 = 1 2 12 4 0 2 b11 = b12 = b13 = b21 = 4 b22 = −1 b23 = 0
Arada [10]

Answer:

b_{11}=-14,b_{12}=9,b_{13}=8,b_{21}=4,b_{22}=-1,b_{23}=0

Step-by-step explanation:

The given matrix addition is

B+\begin{bmatrix}15&-7&4\\ 0&1&2\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}1&2&12\\ 4&0&2\end{bmatrix}

We need to find the elements of matrix B.

Let B=\begin{bmatrix}b_{11}&b_{12}&b_{13}\\ b_{21}&b_{22}&b_{23}\end{bmatrix}

Substitute the value of matrix.

\begin{bmatrix}b_{11}&b_{12}&b_{13}\\ b_{21}&b_{22}&b_{23}\end{bmatrix}+\begin{bmatrix}15&-7&4\\ 0&1&2\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}1&2&12\\ 4&0&2\end{bmatrix}

After addition of two matrix we get

\begin{bmatrix}b_{11}+15&b_{12}-7&b_{13}+4\\ b_{21}+0&b_{22}+1&b_{23}+2\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}1&2&12\\ 4&0&2\end{bmatrix}

On equating both sides.

b_{11}+15=1\Rightarrow b_{11}=-14

b_{12}-7=2\Rightarrow b_{12}=9

b_{13}+4=12\Rightarrow b_{13}=8

b_{21}+0=4\Rightarrow b_{21}=4

b_{22}+1=0\Rightarrow b_{22}=-1

b_{23}+2=2\Rightarrow b_{23}=0

Therefore, the elements of matrix B are b_{11}=-14,b_{12}=9,b_{13}=8,b_{21}=4,b_{22}=-1,b_{23}=0.

Find the missing coefficient.<br><br> -<br> y2 − [-5y − y(-7y − 9)] − [-y (15y + 4)] = 0
maria [59]
There is only one solution in the given equation -y2 − [-5y − y(-7y − 9)] − [-y (15y + 4)] = 0. In solving this problem, apply first PEMDAS (parenthesis, exponents,multiplication, division, addition, subtraction). Then equation will transform into -y2+5y-7y2-9y+15y2+4y=0. Combine terms with same power and achieve 7y2=0. Divide both sides with 7 and perform square root of zero. Since the root is zero, we have one solution of the given equation which is y=0.
