Answer:
(x+8)-x
Step-by-step explanation:
if amy is 8 more than ben
we dont know ben, so he is x
you have to subtract ben from amy
so amy is 8 more than ben, you have to add 8 to ben, who is x
Answer:
what is ac?

Answer:
The fraction of the book that Rena read every day is 
Step-by-step explanation:
Rena spent 6 days reading her book completing the same fraction of the book every day and you want to know the fraction of the book she read each day. Knowing that Rena had a total of 8/9 of her book read after 6 days, then you simply divide the total amount of the book read during those days by 6, the number of days:
÷6
To divide a fraction by a whole number, you must convert the whole number into a fraction, finding the reciprocal of that fraction, and multiply it by the first fraction. That is, you must find the reciprocal of the number that is after the division symbol; and then you multiply the first number (the one before the division symbol) by the reciprocal of the second number (the one after the division symbol). Remember that to find the reciprocal of a number, you simply have to change the numerator and denominator of the number.
Since 6 can be considered to be a fraction equal to
, by inverting the number, then you get 
Then:
÷6= 
Now you multiply the numerators and denominators of the fraction to get the new numerator and denominator of the final solution.
÷6= 
Finally, simplifying the fraction:
÷6= 
So:
÷6=

Answer:
x = 5 , y = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve this using substitution.
Let the quantity of cheese wafers be denoted by x and the quantity of chocolate wafers denoted by y
2x + 1y = 25
x + y = 20
These two equations are the answer to part A, (remember to include the above prompt which says what x and y denote).
For part B I used substitution because it was more applicable to the question then addition or elimination.
ACTUAL WORK
Set 2x + 1y = 25 equal to x
x = 25 - y / 2
Replace x with y in the second equation
(25 - y / 2) + y = 20
And solve for y
y = 15
Since we know what y is we can replace y in the second equation and find what x is
x + 15 = 20
Solve for x
x = 5
Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
If h=2 it would be 2+3 which equals 5. Then multiply 5 by 5 and get 25.
Hope this helps :)
