"Pedro has twice as many carrots as Martha:"
p = 2m
<span>
"If Pedro gives 5 carrots to Oliver,"
p - 5 (</span>Oliver is irrelevant.)<span>
"then Martha has 3 times as many carrots as Pedro"
</span>
m = 3(p - 5)
We know p in terms of m, so substitute it in:
m = 3(2m - 5)
Distribute the 3:
m = 6m - 15
Subtract 6m from both sides:
m-6m=-15
Combine variable terms:
-5m=-15
Divide out -5
m = -15/-5
m = 3
The answer is c) 3
The least positive integer is 1. The greatest negative integer is -1.
The answer is D. It does not satisfy the second equation because 0 is not greater than 1.
Answer:
∠ECF = 37°
Step-by-step explanation:
∠ACG = 37° because it is a complementary angle to 53° (37° + 53° = 90°)
∠ECF = 37° because it is a vertical angle to 37°
In order to express 0.45 as a common fraction, all you have to do is first divide 45 to 100. So in order to get the answer to this, you just have to put 45 as the numerator and 100 as the denominator. This will become 45/100. To turn it into its simple form, you have to first ask yourself what is a common divisible number for the two. 5 can be divided by 45 and 100 so 5 can be used. So the final answer, if you make it into simplest form, will be 9/20
