2(x+7) + x=20
(2)(x) + (2)(7) + x=20 Distribute
2x+14 + x =20
(2x+x) + (14) =20 Combine Like Terms
3x+14=20
- 14 -14 Subtract 14 from both sides
3x = 6
3x/3 6/3 Divide Both Sides by 3
x = 2
Let me know if you still don't understand
3/4+1/3=9/12+4/12=13/12 of an hour
13/12= 1 1/12
Scale factor is 1/3
And I think it's an enlargement
Answer:
Area of the dilation = 10.8 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the original dimension
Length = 12inches
Width = 10inches
If they are dilated by a factor of 0.3
New length = 0.3 * 12 = 3.6in
New width = 0.3 * 10 = 3in
Area of the dilation = 3.6 * 3
Area of the dilation = 10.8 square inches
Answer: The tripled tofu is 4 lb. 14 oz. Explanation: So you first want to turn your mass into the same unit, so change the pounds of tofu into ounces. There are 16 ounces in a pound, which means the total mass of the original tofu could be written as (16 oz.) + 10 oz. = 26 oz. tofu. Multiply this by 3, and you have tripled the tofu. 3 * 26 = 78. To simplify it, divide 78 oz by 16 to find pounds, and leave the remainder in ounces. 78/16 = 4 lb. 14 oz tofu.
