Answer:
x = 10/27
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
- Equality Properties
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>
9/5x = 2/3
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Divide both sides by 9/5: x = 10/27
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute: 9/5(10/27) = 2/3
- Multiply: 90/135 = 2/3
- Simplify: 2/3 = 2/3
And we have our final answer!
Answer:
nickel = 16
dimes = 32
quarters = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
number of coins Zachery have in his piggy bank = 58
total money Zachery have in his piggy bank = $6.50
Suppose number of nickel = x
number of dimes = 2x
number of quarters = y
1 nickel = $0.05
1 dime = $0.10
1 quarter = $0.25
<h3>
Equation 1</h3>
x + 2x + y = 58
3x + y = 58
<h3>
Equation 2</h3>
x(0.05) + 2x(0.10) + y(0.25) = 6.50
0.05x + 0.2x + 0.25y = 6.50
0.25x + 0.25y = 6.50
y = 58 - 3x
<h3>
put value of y in equation 2</h3>
0.25x + 0.25(58 - 3x) = 6.50
0.25x + 14.5 - 0.75x = 6.50
-0.5x = 6.50 - 14.5
-0.5x = -8
x = 16
y = 58 - 3x
y = 58 -3(16)
y =10
number of nickel = x = 16
number of dimes = 2x = 32
number of quarters = y = 10
Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
Eliminating parentheses, we have ...
... 1 - 5q +2·2.5q +2·8
... = 1 -5q +5q +16 . . . . . carry out the multiplication
... = q(-5+5) +(1 +16) . . . . group like terms
... = q·0 +17 . . . . . . . . . . . combine like terms
... = 17
Answer:
52
Step-by-step explanation:
If JK bisects the angle, the two angles are equal
6x+2 = 8x-6
Subtract 6x from each side
6x-6x+2 = 8x-6x-6
2 = 2x-6
Add 6 to each side
2+6 =2x-6+6
8 =2x
Divide by 2
8/2 =2x/2
4 =x
Now find angle LJM, which is the sum of the two angles
6x+2 + 8x-6
14x -4
14*4-4
56-4
