Step-by-step explanation:
25x+5x +50
combine like terms
30x+50
isolate x
30x=-50
divide by 30
x= -1&2/3 or roughly -1.67
You can tell that the equal share is more than 1 whole when the numerator is greater than the denominator.How? As we all know that in order to convert a fraction to a decimal number, we need to divide the numerator by the denominator.Now, if the numerator is less than the denominator, expect that the digit is now less than 1 whole. But if the numerator is greater than the denominator, for sure, it is more than 1 whole for example.=> 5/4 , where 5 is the numerator and 4 is the denominator<span>=> 1 and 1/4 or 1.25</span>
I am not positive but it looks like it is 16 feet because you subtract from the length of the ladder which gives you 18-2 which equals 16
