Answer:

x = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we must distribute 3(x-9) = 30

3x - 27 = 30

Now, that we've distributed this equation, we can proceed.

Secondly, since there is a subtraction sign in front of 27, we must do the opposite, addition.

Add 27 to 27 and 30:

3x - 27 = 30

-27 + 27 = 0

30 +  27 = 57

Furthermore, -27 + 27 is 0, so it cancels itself out. Also, since we added 30 and 27 and got 57, replace 30 with 57.

3x = 57

Lastly, divide 57 by the number in front of coefficient, 3.

57/3=19

Therefore, x=19.

Answer:

x = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x - 9) = 30

Divide both sides by 3 to isolate the binomial.

x - 9 = 10

Add 9 to both sides to isolate x.

x = 19

Check your answer by plugging x = 19 back into the equation.

3(x - 9) = 30

3(19 - 9) = 30

Subtract.

3(10) = 30

Multiply.

30 = 30

Your answer is correct.

Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

3 :7 \\Acute \: angle = 90\°\\7+3 = 10\\\frac{7}{10} \times 90\\\\= \frac{630}{10}\\ = 63 \°\\

2.

Let \:the\: other\:acute \:angle\: be \:x\\According\:to \:the \:question ; \\ \:\\(2x-30)+x =90\\2x - 30 +x =90\\2x +x = 90+30\\3x = 120\\\frac{3x}{3} =\frac{120}{3} \\x = 40 \\\\(2x -30)\\2(40) -30\\80 - 30 = 50\\\\\\Angle \:1 = 50\°\\Angle \: 2 = 40\°\\

In the morning, Marco sold 12 cups of lemonade for $3. By the end of the day, he had earned $9. How many cups of lemonade did he
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Marco earned $2.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. If Marco sold 12 cups of lemonade for 3$, we would divide 12 cups and how much he earned from the 12 cups (3$). 12/3 = 4

2. By the end of the day, Marco earned $9. So, 4 cups = 1$. To break it down, 1$ = 100 cents and 100 cents divided by 4 is 25 cents.  Cups to Cost. ( 4 : 1 ) and/or ( 1 : 0.25 )

3. 8 cups = 2$ plus 1 cup (0.25) = 2.25.
