Answer:
d = 16.88
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by simplifying both sides of the equation then isolate the variable
<span>For it to be finite, it must have an upper and lower bound. It has a lower bound...but what is the highest odd number greater than 27
There's no restriction; odd numbers go on forever.</span>
Let x be the unknown angle.
Make an equation using the formula.
<span>"measure of one acute angle is 3 times" Since we know that x is the one acute angle, we can multiply that by 3 to get 3x.
"</span><span>the sum of" when ever you see the word 'sum' it means that there will be an addition process involved and in this case it also means that 3x will equal to the rest of the equation. (3x=)
</span>
<span>"measure of the other acute angle and 8" We already know that the other angle is x . Since there is no other indicator of the 8 being subtracted, multiplied, and divided and that we know this is an addition problem, we can conclude that 8 will be added to the other angle. (x+8)
</span>
So, now we have the equation and all we have to do is simplify it.
3x= x+8
-x -x *Move constants and variables to opposite sides*
------------
2x=8
--- --- *Divide by 2 to isolate the variable*
2 2
x=4
So, I'm assuming you want to know the measure of both angles. All you have to do is plug in the x in the 3x and x+8 depending on which angle you want.
3x
3(4)=12
The measure of the first angle is 12.
x+8
4+8= 12
The measure of the second angle is also 12.
Yes...thats what u want to do. you want to get the x terms on one side and everything else on the other side.
8x = 7x + 3....so we will subtract 7x from both sides
8x - 7x = 7x - 7x + 3....simplify
1x, or just x = 3 (because ur 7x's cancelled each other out)
so ur answer is : x = 3
and u can check ur answer by subbing it back into the original equation.
8x = 7x + 3
8(3) = 7(3) + 3
24 = 21 + 3
24 = 24 (correct)
Answer:
39 athletes
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a total of 45 people on the bus. This INCLUDES the athletes (A), 2 coaches and 4 managers.
Therefore, we need to sum A, 2 and 4 and equal it to 45:
2 + 4 + A = 45 so we need to used equation d.
To calculate how many athletes are on the bus, find the value of A:
2 + 4 + A = 45
Subtract 2 from both sides: 4 + A = 43
Subtract 4 from both sides: A = 39
