Answer:
You would not subtract 3...
Step-by-step explanation:
It should be
2x- 8= 5x+3
subtract 5x from both sides,
then add 8 onto both sides, then you would get 0 on one side, and 11 on the other so you would have
-3=11 which equals
3.6
Answer:
I came up with -12
Step-by-step explanation:
8 workers = 6 days to complete
x workers = 4 days faster to complete
6/4=1.5 days faster
1.5 x 8 = 12 workers needed to complete the wall in fours days
First, figure out what you do and don't know....
You do know that 3 times the sum of a number and 4 is 18 more than the number....you don't know the number so you make it the variable x
now take 3 times the sum of a number and 4 and make that an expression 3x+4 this expression is the same or equal to the sum of x and 18 x+18
3x+4=x+18
2x+4=18
2x=14
x=7
hope this helped :)
Answer:
120 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance the gravel covers is the total distance times the percentage that the gravel covers
We know the gravel covers 66 ft and the percentage is 55%
distance gravel = total distance * percentage
66 = total distance * 55%
66 = total distance *.55
Divide each side by .55
66/.55 = total distance *.55/.55
120 = total distance
