Let the first number be = x
Then the second number = 2x
The third number = 2x - 5
Their sum = 55
This can be written in an equation as =
x + 2x + 2x - 5 = 55
= x + 2x + 2x = 55 + 5 ( transposing -5 from LHS to RHS changes -5 to +5 )
= x + 2x + 2x = 60
= 5x = 60
= x = 60 ÷ 5 ( transposing ×5 from LHS to RHS changes ×5 to ÷5 )
= x = 12
The first number = x = 12
The second number = 2x = 2 × 20 = 24
The third number = 2x - 5 = 24 - 5 = 19
Therefore , the three numbers are 12 , 24 and 19 .
25=
[{50 divided by 5} plus 3]times 2 -1=25
Answer:
His error is multiplying by 4 sides as he thought it was total surface not lateral surface area- the final answer is 12
Step-by-step explanation:
He should have multiplied it by 3, because the 3 sides- not including the base- is what lateral surface area is. He originally did total surface area not lateral surface area so each sides area is 4m squared then you just multiply it by 3 and its 12
Answer:
7 hours
They worked together for 7 hours ($350 + $120)
Answer:
11 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Squares have the same length and width. So you just take the square root of teh area to find both.
√121 = 11
