Side of the <span>square tile = x-3 </span>⇒ Area = (x-3)² = x² - 6x + 9
3+(-5)x=19
Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation.
-5x= 16
Divide by -5 on both sides
X= -3.2
Answer:
1. The first problem is wrong, it should be 0.5(3(15) + 2(20)) because the parentheses make sure that every purchased item is being divided by 2 (multiplying by 0.5 is the same as dividing by 2)
2. The second problem is partially correct. The first two answers you have checked are correct, but the last one is wrong. The third answer should be 6 + 12 instead because that's just a simplified version of 2(3) + 6(2), meaning they are equal
3. I cannot read your answers in the "Why or Why Not" column in the third problem, but the answers you gave in the "Evaluate" and "Does It Work?" columns are all correct.
Total amount of gas purchased by Ivy's father in the first week = 22.5 gallons
total amount of gas purchased by Ivy's father in the second week = 19.71 gallons
Let us assume the amount of gas purchased by Ivy's father in the third week = x
The total quantity of gas purchased in 3 weeks by Ivy's father = 61.75 gallons
Then
22.5 + 19.71 + x = 61.75
42.21 + x = 61.75
x = 61.75 - 42.21
= 19.54 gallons
So 19.54 gallons of gas was bought by Ivy's father in the third week
Answer:
x =30
Step-by-step explanation:
in order to evaluate the solution 4/5=20/(x-5)?
solution
the first step to take is to cross multiply
4/5=20/(x-5)
we have,
5 x 20 = 4 ( x -5)
100 = 4x - 20
combine the like terms
100+20 = 4x
120 = 4x
divide both sides by the coefficient of x
120/4 = 4x/4
30 = x
x =30
therefore the value of x in the expression 4/5=20/(x-5)? is 30
