You're looking for c, so you want to isolate it or get it by itself. To get rid of the /3 you multiply since the opposite of division is multiplication and to get rid of it, you do the opposite (like -9 you would add 9 to get it to 0). Now you are left with -19+c = 24 (the 24 is 8*3 because what you do to one side you do to the other. Now you get c by itself so you add 19 to both sides which leaves you with C= 43. Sorry if this was confusing!
You need to find the least common denominator first which is 4. 3 3/4 can stay the same but you must have like denominators to add so change 1 1/2 to 1 2/4 by multiplying by 2/2. You know have like denominators and you can add whole numbers first 3+1=4 and then the fractions 3/4+2/4= 5/4 which is also 1 1/4. Now you add 4 so your answer is 5 1/4
8+(x/-9)=9 subtract 8
x/-9= 1 multiply by -9
x= -9
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Let the numbers be x, y and z</u>
- x + y + z = 24
- 2y = z + 2
- z = x + y
<u>Solving by substitution:</u>
- x + y + z = z + z = 24
- 2z = 24
- z = 12
- 2y = z + 2
- 2y = 12 + 2
- 2y = 14
- y = 7
- z = x + y
- x = z - y
- x = 12 - 7 = 5
<u>The answer:</u>
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute 50 for y in the formula
5x+10y=800
5x+10*50=800
5x+500=800
5x=800-500
5x=300
x=300/5
x=60
