Answer:

x = 0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Distribute</u>

5(3x + 4) = 23

(5 * 3x) + (5 * 4) = 23

(15x) + 20 = 23

<u>Step 2:  Subtract 20 from both sides</u>

(15x) + 20 - 20 = 23 - 20

15x = 3

<u>Step 3:  Divide both sides by 15</u>

\frac{15x}{15} = \frac{3}{15}

x = \frac{1}{5}

x = 0.2

Answer:  x = 0.2

Answer:

x = 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

5(3x + 4) = 23

Distribute

15x+20 = 23

Subtract 20 from each side

15x+20-20 = 23-20

15x = 3

Divide by 15

15x/15 = 3/15

x = 1/5

Sally used all of the paint shown to make a certain tint of orange paint. How many pints of red paint should be mixed with 24 pi
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

18 pints

Step-by-step explanation:

As we can see, three pint of yellow paint was mixed with four pint of red paint. Let x represent the number of yellow paint and let y represent the number of red paint. Therefore, the ratio of the two paints is:

x/y = 3/4

x = (3/4)y

To calculate the number of red paints (x) that is needed to be mixed with 24 pints of yellow paint, we use the equation and substitute y as 24. Hence:

x =  (3/4)y

x =  (3/4) * 24

x = 18 pints

An angle measures 82 degrees more than the measure of its supplementary angle. What is the measure of each angle
dolphi86 [110]

Smaller Angle: 49 degrees

Bigger Angle: 131 degrees

Note that supplementary angles add up to be 180 degrees. Knowing this and the information provided in the question, we can use the following system of equations:

x + y = 180 (showing they both add up to 180)

x + 82 = y  (to show one angle is 82 more than the other)

We can use the substitution method to solve. Since the second equation ends in  "= y" we can substitute the value of it into y for the first equation.

x + y = 180; x + 82 = y  ==> x + (x + 82) = 180

And now, solve for x:

x + (x + 82) = 180

x + x + 82 = 180 > combine like terms

2x + 82 = 180

2x = 98

x = 49

So now we have the value for one of the angles! Remembering that the other angle is 82 degrees bigger, dd 49 + 82, which equals 131.

So, our two angle values are 131 and 49! This is correct since both angle measures add up to be 180, which also makes them supplementary!
