x = number of 1-cent stamps
y = number of 8-cent stamps
z = number of 12-cent stamps
We have 31 stamps all together, so x+y+z = 31.
"I have 4 more 1-cent stamps than 8-cent stamps" means we have the equation x = y+8. Whatever y is, add 8 to it to get x. Solve for y to get y = x-8.
You also have "twice as many one cent stamps as 12 cent stamps", so x = 2z. Solving for z gets you z = 0.5x
-------------
x+y+z = 31
x+x-8+z = 31 ... y replaced with x-8
x+x-8+0.5x = 31 ... plug in z = 0.5x
2.5x-8 = 31
2.5x = 31+8
2.5x = 39
x = 39/2.5
x = 15.6
Your teacher made a typo somewhere because we should get a positive whole number result for x (since x is a count of how many 1-cent stamps we have).
Answer:
It would be 8 1/6 im 90% sure

Step-by-step explanation:
These triangles are similar triangles, so there is a number that you can multiply the sides of TUV to find the side lengths of QRS. looking at the triangle, the similar sides are RS being similar to UV and RQ being similar to UT.
If RS~UV, then there is a ratio between them. 54/36=1.5. The ratio is 1.5.
RQ~UT, and by a factor of 1.5, so divide RQ by the scale factor. 24/1.5=16. UT=16=x+5.
x+5=16, subtract 5 from both sides.
x=11
The answer would be: <span>√x+3=13
</span>A radical equation is an equation with at least one variable put on a radical form. In this question, there is only one kind of variable which is x. Then, you need to find the equation where x is in the radical form. The radical form can be expressed with square root symbol.
The option with √x would be only <span>√x+3=13

Answer:
2/10 I believe
Step-by-step explanation:
3/10 + 4/10= 7/10
9/10 - 7/10 = 2/10
