Mr. Ramirez can use many different group sizes, but the largest group size possible is 8. This results in 16/8=2 sixth-grade groups and 24/8=3 seventh-grade groups.
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
First, substitute the values of the variables into the expression:
3(y + 4) - (x - 1)
3(2 + 4) - (3 - 1)
Now, simplify both parentheses:
3(6) - 2
18 - 2
Finally, simplify:
16
Answer:
4 (3 x + 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of a rectangle, is all of the sides added up.
In a rectangle, there are two widths (right and left), and two lengths (up and down)
So:
Perimeter = 2 × width + 2 × length.
To get the equation we just substitute in the values that we are given:
length = (x)
width = (x - 4)
perimeter = 87
So just put these values into: perimeter = 2 × width + 2 × length:
87 = 2(x) + 2(x - 4)
_____________________________
Answer:
The equation is: 87 = 2(x) + 2(x - 4)
<em>(note: this can be simplified down like so:</em>
<em>87 = 2x + 2x - 8</em>
<em>87 = 4x - 8</em>
<em>95 = 4x</em>
23.75 = x
