Answer:
So, the initial number of apples is 7.
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of apples of An, Binh, and Chi are the same. An gave away 17 apples, Chi gave away 19 apples, so now Chi's apples are 5 times higher than the total remaining apples of An and Binh. How many apples did each of you have at first? (Solve the above problem by equation or system of equations)
Let the initial numbers of apples is a.
An gave 17 apples
Chi gave 19 apples
So,
x - 19 = 5 (x - 17 + x)
x - 19 = 5 (2x - 17)
x - 19 = 10 x - 85
9 x = 66
x = 7
9514 1404 393
Explanation:
The correct order of the steps is ...
- (Given)
- (Definition of supplementary)
- (Substitution)
- (Subtraction ...)
- (Definition of congruent angles)
A proof always starts with "given". It always ends with a statement of what you have proved.
To fill in the sequence between these, it helps to think about what the relationships are and why you can conclude that the theorem is correct.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: X and Y represent the digits.
The tens digit is twice the units digit.
The digit in the Tens place has 10× its base value, so we can set up equations to model the information given.
10x +y 10y +x are Original & Reversed numbers
X = 2y means the Tens digits is twice the units digit.
10y + x +2 = 10x +y - 34 models the statement: The reversed number plus two is 34 less than the original number.
Substitute 2y for x to solve for y
10y +2y +2= 10(2y) + y -34
Distribute and combine like terms
12y + 2 = 20y +y - 34
34 +2 = 21y -12y
36 = 9y Divide both sides to find the value of y.
4 = y
X = 2(4) Substitute 4 for y to find x
X = 8
Original number: 84 Reversed number: 48
Substitute into equation model
48 +2= 84 -34
50 = 50
True!
