Answer:
No, 8+10=18 but, 14+10=24 which means x=14
Step-by-step explanation:
1.) X=2, 2/2=1, Y=1
2.) X=6, 6/2=3, Y=3
3.) X=10, 10/2=5, Y=5
I hope this helps! :)
8=10-2 or
997=1000-3
so we can use distributive property
remember, a(b+c)=ab+ac
for the first one
8(997)=(10-2)(997)=997(10-2)=997(10)+997(-2)=9970-1994=7976
2nd one
8(997)=8(1000-3)=8(1000)+8(-3)=8000-24=7976
Answer:
Bag 1: 20
Bag 2: 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the amount taken out of bag 2
Then the amount left in each bag can be written as:
Bag 1: 50-3x
Bag 2: 50-x
Since we know that half of bag 2 is bag 1, that gives us:
50-3x = 1/2(50-x)
-> 50-3x = 25-x/2
Now lets isolate x and solve:
25 = 5x/2
-> 50 = 5x
-> x = 10
So plug x bag in for the original equations:
Bag 1: 50-3x = 50-3(10) = 20
Bag 2: 50-x = 50-10 = 40
Answer:
10* 299.99=2999.9
2999.9/100=29.999
this would round up to 30, so Brittany saved $30. : )
