Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Let the number be x </em>
So,
=> The sum of number and 15 is x + 15
=> Three times will be 3(x+15)
<u>Given that</u> it equals 24
<u>So, the given condition is:</u>
3(x+15) = 24
<em>Resolving Parenthesis</em>
3x + 45 = 24
<em>Subtracting 45 to both sides</em>
3x = 24 - 45
3x = -21
<em>Dividing both sides by 3</em>
x = -7
Answer:
7. x = 5
8. x = 2, y = 6
9. x = 21, y = 39
Step-by-step explanation:
For a parallelogram, the lengths across intersection are equal.
7. For a parallelogram, the lengths across intersection are equal.
So that,
3x = 4x - 5
4x - 3x = 5
x = 5
8. For a parallelogram, the lengths across intersection are equal.
So that,
2x = 4
x =
x = 2
and
y - 1 = 2y -7
7 - 1 = 2y - y
y = 6
x = 2, y = 6
9. For a parallelogram, opposite angles have equal value.
Thus,
3x = (4x - 21)
3x = 4x - 21
x = 21
and
3y = (y + 78)
3y = y + 78
3y - y = 78
2y = 78
y =
= 39
y = 39
x = 21, y = 39
