Let
x = first integer
y = second integer
z = third integer
First equation: x + y + z = 194
Second equation: x + y = z + 80
Third equation: z = x - 45
Let's find the values of x, y and z.
Substitute 3rd eq to 1st eq:
x + y + x - 45 = 194
2x + y = 45 + 194
y = -2x + 239
Plug in both we have solved for y and the 3rd eq to the 2nd eq to find x
x + (-2x + 239) = (x - 45) + 80
x - 2x - x = -45 + 80 - 239
-2x = -204
x = -204/-2
x = 102
Solving for y,
y = -2(102) + 239
y = 35
Solving for z,
z = 102 - 45
z = 57
A variable next to any number means to multiply, so we would do the inverse operation -- We would divide 0.48 by 0.6, which is 0.8. Therefore, W=0.48. To check your work, multiply 0.6 by 0.8, and what do you know? It's 0.48! :)
Answer:
1/10
Step-by-step explanation:
If she painted 1/20 of a fence in 1/2 hour she can paint another 1/20 of the fence in another 1/2 hour.
1/20 + 1/20 = 2/20 = 1/10
I like using decimals instead of fractions.
1/8: 0.125
So the scale is:
0.125 in: 1.5 mi
What you do to one side you have to do to the other side. We have the map distance, which is 2.5. Let's see what it was multiplied by to find the map distance of their houses.
2.5÷ 0.125= 20
Let's multiply the other side by 20.
20×1.5
30
So, Juanita and Lindsey live 30 minutes away.
