He had 40 pencils left after he gave away 8, so originally he had 40 + 8 pencils, which is 48.
Now, he bought 4 packages, which had a total of 48 pencils, so divide 48 by 4, which is 12. He had 12 pencils in each package.
To determine the solution arithmetically, first add 8 to 40, then divide 48 by 4.
To determine the solution algebraically, set up and solve the equation 40 = 4x - 8.
Each package contained 12 pencils.
Hope this helps
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the linear dimensions (perimeter) is the square root of the ratio of area dimensions, so the larger : smaller ratio is ...
√(72/50) = √1.44 = 1.2
The sum of ratio units is 1.2 + 1 = 2.2, so each ratio unit stands for ...
(226 dm)/2.2 = 102 8/11 dm . . . . . the perimeter of the smaller triangle
Then the perimeter of the larger triangle is ...
1.2 × 102 8/11 dm = 123 3/11 dm . . . . the perimeter of the larger triangle
A) from 2 to infinity
B) from -infinity to -3
C) -3 to 2
D) -infinity to -3 and 2 to infinity
E) -infinity to infinity
F) no because the slope is linnear in 2 stops but has a different slope in both spots meaning it can’t be a linnear function or an exponential funtion
Answer:
x
=5, y
=0
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve 3x−5 = 9:
Add 5 to both sides, to isolate 3x on the left side: 3x = 5+9 = 14
Solve this for x: x = 14/3
