Answer:
r=9/2 or 4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all our goal is to get R by itself
by cross multiplying we get,
(r+3)*3=5r
by distributive property we get
3r+9=5r
substracting 3r from both sides we get
9=2r
by dividing by 2 in both sides we get
r=9/2 or 4.5
Answer: x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A. 7 1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
10 3/4 * 2/3=
43/4 * 2/3= 86/12
86/12 = 7 2/12 = 7 1/6
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The number is between 10 and 49
The number is divisible by 3
Let the 10s digit = x
Let the units digit = y
1/3 * (10x + y) = x + y multiply both sides by 3
10x + y = 3(x +y) remove the brackets.
10x +y = 3x + 3y Subtract 3x from both sides
10x - 3x + y = 3y Combine\
7x + y = 3y Subtract y from both sides.
7x = 3y - y Combine
7x = 2y
x can't be very big. Even taking 1/3 will get out of range is you use 6.
Also x should be an even number. The units digit cannot have a fraction in it.
Try making x = 2
7*2 = 2*y
14 = 2y Divide by 2
14/2 = y
y = 7
So the number is possibly 27. Let's check it out.
- The number is between and includes 10 and 49. 27 is between these two endpoints.
- 27 is divisible by 3
- 1/3(27) = sum of digits
- 9 = (2 + 7)
All of the conditions are met. It's B
Answer:
Number of large boxes: 55
Number of small boxes:65
Step-by-step explanation:
Let be "l" the number of large boxes and "s" the number of small boxes.
Set up a system of equations:
Use the methof of elimination. Mulitply the first equation by -60 and add both equations. Then solve for "s":
Substitute s=65 into any of the original equations and solve for "l":
