Answer:
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
(x+3)/2=6
Multiply each side by 2
2*(x+3)/2=6*2
x+3 = 12
Subtract 3 from each side
x+3-3 = 12-3
x = 9
Answer:
The kitchen drawing is 48 millimeters long.
Answer: you bought 9 burgers and 16 tacos
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of burgers that you bought.
Let y represent the number of tacos that you bought.
You buy a total of 25 burgers and tacos. It means that
x + y = 25
The burgers cost $3.50 each and the tacos cost $2.25 each. The total cost of the burgers and tacos that you bought is $67.50. It means that
3.5x + 2.25y = 67.5- - - - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 25 - y into 1, it becomes
3.5(25 - y) + 2.25y = 67.5
87.5 - 3.5y + 2.25y = 67.5
- 3.5y + 2.25y = 67.5 - 87.5
- 1.25y = - 20
y = - 20/ - 1.25
y = 16
x = 25 - y = 25 - 16
x = 9
44.85 * 9.84 = 441.2256
88.6 * 5.01 = 443.886
